In order to obtain the impact of socket connection interface forms and socket gap sizes on the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) socket prefabricated bridge piers, quasi-static tests for three socket prefabricated piers with different column-foundation connection interface forms and reserved socket gap sizes, as well as to the corresponding cast-in-situ reinforced concrete piers, were carried out. The influence of socket connection structure on various seismic performance indexes of socket prefabricated piers was studied by comparing and analyzing the hysteresis curve and skeleton curve obtained through the experiment. Results showed that the ultimate failure mode of the socket prefabricated pier with circumferential corrugated treatment at the connection interface was the closest to that of the monolithic pier, the maximum bearing capacity was slightly less than that of the cast-in-situ pier but larger than that of the socket pier with roughened connection interface, and the displacement ductility and accumulated energy consumption capacity were smaller than those of socket piers with roughened connection interface. The connection interface treatment form had less influence on the residual deformation of socket prefabricated bridge piers. With the increase in the reserved socket gap size between the precast pier column and the precast foundation, the bearing capacity of the prefabricated socket bridge pier component, as well as the ductility and residual displacement of the component, would be reduced and had unfavorable effect on the energy dissipation property of the bridge pier component.

Bridge foundation failure considering the effect of local scour around pier foundations under hi-directional seismic excitations is examined in probabilistic perspectives. The seismic responses of bridges with deep foundations are evaluated with a simplified mechanical model, which can consider the local scour effect around the deep foundation in addition to many other components. The probabilistic characteristics of local scour depths are estimated by using the Monte Carlo simulation. The probabilistic characteristics of basic random variables used in the Monte Carlo simulation are determined from the actual hydraulic data collected in middle size streams in Korea. The failure condition of deep foundation is assumed as bearing capacity failure of the ground below the foundation base. The probability of foundation failure of a simply supported bridge with various scour conditions and hi-directional seismic excitations are examined. It is found that the local scour and the recovery duration are critical factors in evaluating the probability of foundation failure. Moreover, the probability of foundation failure under hi-directional seismic excitations is much higher than under uni-directional seismic excitations. Therefore, it is reasonable to consider hi-directional seismic excitations in evaluating the seismic safety of bridge systems scoured by a flood.

Due to the sea-crossing bridge span is generally large and main pier pile foundations are located in deep water and carry large vertical load, sea-crossing bridge main pier pile foundations bearing mechanism and load deformation characteristics are still vague. Authors studied the vertical bearing properties of sea-crossing bridge main pier pile foundations through pilot load tests. Large tonnage load test of Qingdao Bay Bridge main pier pile program is designed by using per-stressed technique to optimize the design of anchor pile reaction beam system. Test results show that the design is feasible and effective. This method can directly test bearing capacity of main pier pile foundations, and analysis bearing behaviors from test results of sensors which embedded in the pile. Through test study the vertical bearing properties of main pier pile foundation and compared with the generally short pile, author summarized the main pier pile foundations vertical bearing capacity and the main problem of design and construction which need to pay attention, and provide a reliable basis and experience for sea-crossing bridge main pier pile foundations design and construction.

To secure stability and availability of Rammed Aggregate Pier method as the foundation of a structure, the bearing capacity and failure behavior characteristics was studied through soil laboratory tests in a model ground. In this study, soil laboratory tests use carried out to find the applicability of RAP method as the foundation of a structure. And bearing capacity and the failure mechanism of RAP method was studied according to relative density($60\%,\;70\%,\;90\%$), diameter(45mm, 60mm, 70mm) of each pier ana depth(5cm, l0cm, 15cm, 20cm, 25cm, 30cm). Earth pressure cell is set up approach RAP and 1.0D space at RAP center. Bearing acpacity and the failure mechanism of RAP is investigated by load test As a result, bulging failure was happened in $5\~10cm\;(1.0D\~2.00)$ depth which the maximum lateral earth pressure is acting. Especially, diameter changing of RAP are in inverse proportion to the relative density and the lateral stress is very much influenced by the lateral earth pressure in every layer and tends to decrease according to depth.

하천의 세굴은 교각 주변의 흙을 침식시켜 교각의 횡방향 지지력을 저감시키고 구조물의 건전도를 저하시키게 된다. 본 연구에서는 세굴이 구조물의 건전도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 주변지반의 굴착에 따른 교각의 고유진동수 측정실험을 수행하였다. 폐교예정인 만경강교의 우물통기초 교각에서 충격진동시험을 수행하였다. 교각의 상단, 중앙, 하단에 가속도계를 부착하고 세 지점을 타격하여 가속도를 계측하였다. 실험 결과, 타격위치에 따른 가속도 측정값 중 상단타격이 일관되고 합리적인 가속도 결과를 보여주었다. 계측된 가속도는 고속 푸리에 변환(FFT)을 통하여 주파수 영역으로 변환되었고, 이를 이용하여 고유진동수를 측정하였다. 또한, 세굴이 교각의 고유진동수 변화에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 교각 주변 지반을 굴착하면서 고유진동수의 변화를 측정하였다. 그 결과, 굴착 깊이에 따라 고유 진동수가 감소하는 경향을 보여주었지만, 우물통 기초형식이 큰 강성을 가지고 있어 그 감소폭은 작은 것으로 나타났다.

Pile foundation is widely used for railway bridges in loess throughout northwestern China. Modeling of the loess-pile interaction is an essential part for seismic analysis of bridge with pile foundation at seismically active regions. A quasi-static test is carried out to investigate the hysteretic behaviors of pile foundation in collapsible loess. The failure characteristics of the bridge pile-loess system under the cyclic lateral loading are summarized. From the test results, the energy dissipation, stiffness degradation and ductility of the pile foundation in loess are analyzed. Therefore, a bilinear model with stiffness degradation is recommended for the nonlinearity of the bridge pier-pile-loess system. It can be found that the stiffness of the bridge pier-pile-loess system decreases quickly in the initial stage, and then becomes more slowly with the increase of the displacement ductility. The equivalent viscous damping ratio is defined as the ratio of the dissipated energy in one cycle of hysteresis curves and increases with the lateral displacement.

We have many foundations which were constructed on the karstic areas where solution cavities and fractured zone may form under, or close to foundations. The fact that the ground under the pier foundations was reinforced with the three axial high pressure jet grouting is confirmed through out about two hundred design reports. It is necessary that evaluation of a simple application of high pressure jet grouting method on the karstic areas containing solution cavities. In this study, the improved situation and reinforcing methods of the ground under the pier foundations are proposed based on the evaluation of design reports for the express highway and No.38 national roads.

Landing pier is connect from onshore to offshore with bridge type that a coast structure. The sub-structure is consisted of vertical or batter pile and combined reinforced concrete slab. These days useful design method of quay wall of landing pier type for pile foundation analysis abide by approximate depth of pile supported method, "Harbor and port design criterion, 2005 The ministry of land transport and maritime affairs". The approximate depth of pile supported is calculated two kind of method that one is assume to below depth of 1/$\beta$ from assumed submarine surface and other is 1st fixpoint depth by Chang(1937)'s theory. By this paper, FEM dynamic analysis of 3-dimensions was achieved that it has compared pile fixed end modeling with elastic spring modeling base on winkler theory.

2경간 연속 철도교의 종방향 거동에 영향을 미치는 여러 인자들에 대해서 연구하였다. 그 인자들로는 교각 강성의 크기, 교각의 높이, 교각기초의 크기와 교각받침의 강성을 변화시켜 그에 따른 변화양상을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 고정단 교각에서의 여러 인자들의 변화에 따른 종방향 거동의 변화가 가동단 교각에서의 변화에 따른 영향보다 크다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 받침강성을 변화시켜서 종방향 거동을 제어하는 것이 다른 인자들을 변화시키는 것보다 더 경제적이라 할 수 있다.
