There has been growing agreement that geotechnical reliability-based design (RBD) is necessary for establishing more advanced and integrated design system. In this study, resistance factors for LRFD pile design using CPT results were investigated for axially loaded driven piles. In order to address variability in design methodology, different CPT-based methods and load-settlement criteria, popular in practice, were selected and used for evaluation of resistance factors. A total of 32 data sets from 13 test sites were collected from the literature. In order to maintain the statistical consistency of the data sets, the characteristic pile load capacity was introduced in reliability analysis and evaluation of resistance factors. It was found that values of resistance factors considerably differ for different design methods, load-settlement criteria, and load capacity components. For the total resistance, resistance factors for LCPC method were higher than others, while those for Aoki-Velloso's and Philipponnat's methods were in similar ranges. In respect to load-settlement criteria, 0.1B and Chin's criteria produced higher resistance factors than DeBeer's and Davisson's criteria. Resistance factors for the base and shaft resistances were also presented and analyzed.

Ground subsidence, which is a current concern that affects piled raft foundations, has occurred at a high rate in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam, due primarily to groundwater pumping for water supply. In this study, the groundwater level (GWL) change affect on a piled raft foundation was investigated based on the three-dimensional finite element method (3D-FEM) using the PLAXIS 3D software. The GWL change due to global groundwater pumping and dewatering were simulated in PLAXIS 3D based on the GWL reduction and consolidation. Settlement and the pile axial force of the piled raft foundation in Ho Chi Minh subsoil were investigated based on the actual design and the proposed optimal case. The actual design used the piled foundation concept, while the optimal case applied a pile spacing of 6D using a piled raft concept to reduce the number of piles, with little increased settlement. The results indicated that the settlement increased with the GWL reduction, caused by groundwater pumping and dewatering. The subsidence started to affect the piled raft foundation 2.5 years after construction for the actual design and after 3.4 years for the optimal case due to global groundwater pumping. The pile's axial force, which was affected by negative skin friction, increased during that time.

균질한 지반에서 말뚝의 지지력은 선단지지력과 주변마찰력의 합이며, 사질지반에서는 주변마찰력이 선단지지력보다 우세한 것으로 알려져 있다. 다수의 말뚝을 근접하여 설치하는 무리말뚝에서는 말뚝 하나하나의 지지력이 말뚝 상호간 간섭에 의해 달라질 수 있으므로, 말뚝의 근접도에 따라서 선단지지거동과 주변마찰거동의 변화를 정확하게 파악하여 말뚝을 설계해야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 주면마찰거동의 영향을 배제한 상태에서 무리말뚝의 선단지지거동을 측정하기 위해 크기가 일정한 원형 토조에서 여러 가지 직경과 깊이로 말뚝을 설치하고 상대밀도가 균일한 모래지반을 조성한 후 선단지지력을 측정하여 무리말뚝의 근접도에 따른 영향을 확인하였다. 연구결과 말뚝의 선단저항력은 비교적 뚜렷하게 극한값을 나타냈다. 말뚝의 극한선단지지력은 주면마찰력과 말뚝의 직경에 의한 영향을 적게 받으며, 말뚝관입길이가 깊어질수록 일정한 값에 수렴하였다. 또한, 무리말뚝에서 인접한 말뚝이 말뚝 직경만큼 서로 이격되어 있으면 인접말뚝의 영향이 거의 없었다.

The spot where bottom foundation of a marine bridge is constructed is deep in depth of water and a bedrock, bearing stratum, is very deeply distributed. So, I analyzed material of soil profile and then evaluate bearing capacity and safety of settlement when a stake of site construction is designed using a projection cast in place concrete pile and a sacrifice steel cast in place pile. Also, I analyzed and researched pratical affairs like a slime processing and plumbing maintenance in supervision of execution.

In this study, the behaviors of a cast-in-situ concrete pile embedded in the weathered rock were analysed by a 3D numerical analysis using PENTAGON 3D and the results were compared with those of the field load test. The load-settlement relation and the load transfer relationship were evaluated from the numerical analysis. As a result, the load-settlement relation at the pile top and the axial load distribution with depth were predicted reasonably. And those results were similar with those of the field load test.

본 연구에서는 사질지반에서 말뚝전면기초와 전면기초와의 거동을 유한요소해석을 이용하여 비교하였다. 25개의 시추공의 표준관입시험의 결과를 이용하여 구한 토질정수를 유한요소해석에 사용하였다. 말뚝을 사용하지 않은 전면기초의 경우 $8m{\times}8m$ and $15m{\times}15m$의 크기의 정규화된 침하계수는 각각 1.02~1.15 and 0.64~0.81의 범위로 나타났다. 전면기초의 두께는 부등침하와 휨모멘트에 영향을 미치고 하중분담과 최대침하에는 큰 영향이 없었다. 말뚝의 간격은 최대침하와 부등침하, 휨모멘트에, 말뚝의 하중분담에 영향을 받고 반면에 부등침하와 휨모멘트는 말뚝의 길이에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

본 논문에서는 열응력에 따른 PHC 에너지파일의 축하중과 침하량의 변화를 수치해석을 통하여 분석하였다. 이를 위해 $3{\times}3$, $5{\times}5$ 배열 군말뚝 형태의 에너지파일을 말뚝 간격과 배치, 지반조건, 말뚝의 선단지지조건 및 말뚝 캡의 강성도 등의 조건으로 구분하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구 결과 말뚝 중심 간격이 클수록 온도변화에 따른 말뚝의 축하중 차이가 크게 나타났고, 사질토지반이 점성토지반 보다 온도변화에 의한 침하량의 변화가 크게 나타났다. 또한, 에너지파일이 모서리부에 위치할 때 말뚝의 축하중 차이가 가장 크게 나타났으며, 말뚝의 선단이 암반에 지지된 경우 온도변화에 의한 축하중 변화가 더 크게 발생하여 침하량이 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 말뚝 캡의 강성도에 대한 영향은 말뚝 캡의 강성이 커질수록 온도변화에 의한 침하량이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

Model tests on free standing pile groups and piled footings with varying a pile spacing in two layered soils are carried out. The influence of pile cap on the behaviors of end bearing pile groups is analyzed by comparing the bearing behavior in piled footings with those in a single pile, a shallow footing(cap alone) and free standing pile groups. From the test results, it is found that the bearing characteristics of cap-soil-pile system are related with load levels and pile spacings. Before yield, the bearing resistance by cap is not fully mobilized, however, as the applied load increases, the bearing resistance of cap approaches to that of cap alone and settlement hardening occurs after yield due to the compaction caused by the contact pressure between cap and soil. By the cap-soil-pile interaction, shaft friction and point resistance of piles considerably increase with dependency of pile spacings. In two layered soil, the increasing effect of dilatancy in dense sandy soil adjacent to pile tips, increases the point resistance of pile.

The negative skin friction on piles, which are installed in currently consolidating soft deposits, creates significant problems on the stability of pile foundations. This study investigated whether or not the pile foundation designs were appropriate in soft deposits with large amount of consolidation settlement. The final settlements of the grounds along the pile depth were estimated by the soil parameters obtained from the laboratory tests and by the field-measured settlement curves, if they were available. The displacement of the piles along the pile depth was estimated by both the load transfer method and the numerical method. Both methods gave similar locations of neutral points and magnitudes of the maximum axial forces. The movements of the ground and the piles were compared to calculate the down drag acting on piles. For the piles whose bearing capacities were less than the design loads including the down drag, slip layer coatings and/or incrementing of the penetration depth into the bearing stratum were proposed to improve the piles capacities.
