Digging well foundation has been widely used in railway bridges due to its good economy and reliability. In other instances, bridges with digging well foundation still have damage risks during earthquakes. However, there is still a lack of knowledge of lateral behavior of digging well foundation considering the soil-foundation interaction. In this study, scaled models of bridge pier-digging well foundation system are constructed for quasi-static test to investigate their lateral behaviors. The failure mechanism and responses of the soil-foundation-pier interaction system are analyzed. The testing results indicate that the digging foundations tend to rotate as a rigid body under cyclic lateral load. Moreover, the depth-width ratio of digging well foundation has a significant influence on the failure mode of the interaction system, especially on the distribution of foundation displacement and the failure of pier. The energy dissipation capacity of the interaction system is discussed by using index of the equivalent viscous damping ratio. The damping varies with the depth-width ratio changing. The equivalent stiffness of soil-digging well foundation-pier interaction system decreases with the increase of loading displacement in a nonlinear manner. The absolute values of the interaction system stiffness are significantly influenced by the depth-width ratio of the foundation.

The drilled pier foundation is widely used to support transmission line structures due to its simplicity of construction. When this foundation type is used in conjunction with a single shaft or H-frame structure, it is subjected to a high overturning moment, combined with modest vertical and shear loads. Since the length and diameter of drilled piers are often governed by a maximum permissible deflection, many drilled piers being installed today are very conservatively designed. In this study, Nine prototype field-tests (1/8 scale) have been conducted in order to determine the vertical and lateral resistance of drilled pier foundation for single pole structures. These test results reveal the test piers behaved essentially as rigid bodies in soil (6D) and the center of rotation of the pier were typically 0.6~0.4 of the pier depth below ground surface. Test results also show the relationship between the applied load and the deflection at the top of the pier is highly nonlinear.

In the seismic design of bridges, formation of plastic hinges plays an important role in the dissipation of seismic energy. In the case of conventional fixed-base bridges, the plastic hinges are allowed to form in the superstructure alone. During seismic event, such bridges may be safe from collapse but the superstructure undergoes significant plastic deformations. As an alternative design approach, the plastic hinges are guided to form in the soil thereby utilizing the inevitable yielding of the soil. Rocking foundations work on this concept. The formation of plastic hinges in the soil reduces the load and displacement demands on the superstructure. This study aims at evaluating the seismic response of bridge pier supported on rocking shallow foundation. For this purpose, a BNWF model is implemented in OpenSees platform. The capability of the BNWF model to capture the SSI effects, nonlinear behavior and dynamic loading response are validated using the centrifuge and shake table test results. A comparative study is performed between the seismic response of the bridge pier supported on the rocking shallow foundation and conventional fixed-base foundation. Results of the study have established the beneficial effects of using the rocking shallow foundation for the seismic response analysis of the bridge piers.

우리나라에서는 홍수로 매년 90여개 이상의 교량이 붕괴되고 있으며, 이러한 교량의 붕괴는 대부분 기초의 세굴에 기인하고 있다. 그동안 교량의 설계 및 유지관리 분야에서 세굴에 대한 교량의 건전성을 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 평가기법 개발에 관한 연구는 체계적으로 수행되지 못한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 홍수 발생 후 교각의 세굴 건전성을 평가하기 위한 긴급점검기법으로써 세굴로 인한 교각의 고유진동수 변화를 이용하기 위한 동적특성 평가실험을 수행하였다. 세굴을 모의한 확대기초 교각 모형의 동적특성 평가 실험결과 교각의 1차 모드 고유진동수를 이용하여 기초의 세굴을 평가할 수 있을 것으로 분석되었다.

교각과 기초로 구성되는 불균일단면교각 주위의 사석보호공의 거동에 관련된 인자들의 영향에 관한 실험결과가 기술된다. 불균일단면교각은 교각의 전 길이에 대한 단면이 일정하지 않고 직경 bp의 원주가 보다 큰 직경 bf인 기초에 설치된 구조이다. 사석보호공의 안정은 기초의 높이에 따라 크게 영향을 받으며 한계기초높이, Zc가 존재함이 밝혀졌다. 한계기초높이는 균일단면교각의 한계유속과 같은 한계유속을 갖는 불균일단면교각의 기초높이로 정의되고 실험결과 Zc=0.8bf로 밝혀진다. 기초높이가 Zc보다 작으면 기초의 상류연장으로 작용하여 사석보호공은 더 안정하게 되고, 기초높이가 Zc보다 크게 되면 기초는 단면이 증대된 교각으로 작용하고 기초 자체의 하강류로 인하여 사석보호공은 불안정하게 되어 쉽게 움직이게 된다. 기초상단면적의 영향과 불균일단면교각의 사석보호공의 크기 결정방법이 또한 기술된다.

Scour is the physical or chemical attack of flowing water which excavates and carries away material from stream beds and banks. Especially, hydraulic structures such as bridge piers and abutments placed in the channel causes the changes of the flow pattern like acceleration, the formation of vortices, and scour around the structures. Channel scour, especially bridge pier scour is the leading cause of bridge failures. It is very important to apply appropriate methods for both of scour analysis and protection. In this paper, several methods world-widely used for bridge scour analysis and protection are introduced and compared.

Building foundations for Top-Down construction require a special setting, because the foundations have to be placed way before excavation for the substructure of main building, Usually, the foundation goes into the layer of rock and it is often called rock-pier foundation, Currently, a cage of steel reinforcing bars is inserted to the pre-excavated hole in the rock layer, hanging down from the wide flange steel column above. This paper presents a new method for connecting the prefounded column and the steel cage with a coupler for better connection between the two, The use of a circular Concrete Filled Tube (CFT) as a prefounded column makes it possible to have this type of connection. The details of the connection and application to a Top-Down construction site is also included in this paper.
