  • Piled raft foundations are widely used and effective in supporting high-rise buildings around the world. In this study, a piled raft system was numerically simulated using PLAXIS 3D. The settlement comparison results between the actual building measurements and the three-dimensional (3D) numerical analysis, were in good agreement, indicating the usefulness of this approach for the evaluation of the feasibility of using a piled raft foundation in Ho Chi Minh City subsoil. The effects were investigated of the number of piles based on pile spacing, pile length, raft embedment on the settlement, load sharing, bending moments, and the shear force of the piled raft foundation in Ho Chi Minh City subsoil. The results indicated that with an increased number of piles, increased pile length, and embedding raft depth, the total and differential settlement decreased. The optimal design consisted of pile numbers of 60-70, corresponding to pile spacings is 5.5-6 times the pile diameter (Dp), in conjunction with a pile length-to-pile diameter ratio of 30. Furthermore, load sharing by the raft, by locating it in the second layer of stiff clay, could achieve 66% of the building load. The proposed model of piled raft foundations could reduce the total foundation cost by 49.61% compared to the conventional design. This research can assist practicing engineers in selecting pile and raft parameters in the design of piled raft foundations to produce an economical design for high-rise buildings in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam, and around the world.

  • Piled raft foundation has become widely used in the recent years because it can increase bearing capacity of foundation with control settlement. The design for a piled raft in terms vertical load and lateral load need to understands contribution load behavior to raft and pile in piled raft foundation system. The load-bearing behavior of the piled raft, especially concerning lateral loads, is highly complex and challenge to analyze. The complex mechanism of piled rafts can be clarified by using three dimensional (3-D) Finite Element Method (FEM). Therefore, this paper focuses on free-standing head pile group, on-ground piled raft, and embedded raft for the piled raft foundation systems. The lateral resistant of piled raft foundation was investigated in terms of relationship between vertical load, lateral load and displacement, as well as the lateral load sharing of the raft. The results show that both vertical load and raft position significantly impact the lateral load capacity of the piled raft, especially when the vertical load increases and the raft embeds into the soil. On the same condition of vertical settlement and lateral displacement, piled raft experiences a substantial demonstrates a higher capacity for lateral load sharing compared to the on-ground raft. Ultimately, regarding design considerations, the piled raft can reliably support lateral loads while exhibiting behavior within the elastic range, in which it is safe to use.

  • 말뚝지지 전면기초는 무리말뚝과 전면기초의 지지력을 함께 설계에 적용할 수 있는 기초형식이다. 그러나 변위장 중첩과 구속응력의 증가 등으로 대변되는 무리말뚝 - 지반 - 전면기초 상호작용으로 인해 각각의 무리말뚝기초와 전면기초의 지지력 특성은 변화하게 되며, 이는 말뚝지지 전면기초의 설계에 있어 중요한 요소로써 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 말뚝지지 전면기초에서 발생하는 지지력요소들의 상호작용을 규명하기 위해 원심모형시험을 이용한 전면기초, 단독 말뚝기초, 무리말뚝(16본; $4{\times}4$), 말뚝지지 전면기초(16본; $4{\times}4$) 하중-재하 시험을 수행하였으며, 조밀하고 느슨한 사질토 지반에서의 무리말뚝-지반, 무리말뚝-지반-전면기초의 상호작용을 하중단계에 따른 지지력 특성변화를 기준으로 분석하였다. 실험결과 말뚝지지 전면기초의 상호작용에 의해 무리말뚝기초의 지지력은 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 전면기초의 경우 무리말뚝의 영향에 의해 지지력이 감소하는 것으로 확인되었다.

  • 말뚝지지 전면기초에서 침하량을 산정할 경우 기초판-말뚝-지반간 상호작용을 고려해야 하며, 단순 해석법으로는 이러한 복잡한 상호작용을 고려하여 해석하는 것이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 말뚝지지 전면기초의 침하량 해석을 위해 기초판-말뚝-지반간 상호작용을 고려한 근사해석법(HDPR)을 개발하였다. 기초판은 Mindlin 판이론을 이용하여 유한요소로 모델링 하였고, 지반 및 말뚝은 기초판에 연결된 스프링으로 모델링되었다. 지반 스프링의 경우 다층지반을 고려한 선형 스프링을 적용하였고, 말뚝은 비선형 스프링을 적용하였으며, 각각의 스프링은 기초판-말뚝-지반간 상호작용이 반영되었다. 본 연구에서의 해석기법 검증을 위해 3차원 유한요소해석, 기존에 개발된 근사해석방법 및 실제 현장 계측결과와 비교분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 개발된 기법이 말뚝 및 기초판의 침하량을 합리적으로 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 실제 말뚝지지 전면기초 해석 및 설계 시 실용적인 측면에서 적용이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Bending moments in the raft of a pile raft system is affected by pile-pile interaction and pile-raft interaction, amongst other factors. Three-Dimensional finite element program has to be used to evaluate these bending moments. Winkler type analysis is easy to use but it however ignores these interactions. This paper proposes a very simplified and novel method for finding bending moments in raft of a piled raft based on Winkler type where raft is supported on bed of springs considering pile-pile and pile-raft interaction entitled as "Winkler model for piled raft (WMPR)" The pile and raft spring stiffness are based on load share between pile and raft and average pile raft settlement proposed by Randolph (1994). To verify the results of WMPR, raft bending moments are compared with those obtained from PLAXIS 3D software. A total of sixty analysis have Performed varying different parameters. It is found that raft bending moments obtained from WMPR closely match with bending moments obtained from PLAXIS 3D. A comparison of bending moments ignoring any interaction in Winkler model is also made with PLAXIS-3D, which results in large difference of bending moments. Finally, bending moment results from eight different methods are compared with WMPR for a case study. The WMPR, though, a simple method yielded comparable raft bending moments with the most accurate analysis.

  • 본 연구에서는 고속철도 궤도의 종류에 따른 허용침하량 분포 특성을 분석하기 위하여, 기존 경부 고속철도에 사용되었던 자갈도상 궤도와 시공예정인 콘크리트 궤도의 대표단면 및 지반 물성치를 바탕으로 철도 운행 시 레일상부에서 열차하중에 의해 발생되는 침하량을 3차원수치해석을 통해 분석하였다. 특히 콘크리트궤도의 경우에는 원지반의 물성 변화에 따른 침하량 결과를 토대로 말뚝지지전면기초(pile raft foundation) 보강 시 침하 감소 효과를 분석 정리하였다. 본 연구결과, 원지반이 점성토에서는 콘크리트 궤도와 자갈도상 궤도의 사용에 따라 침하량의 차이가 컸으나, 사질토 지반의 경우는 궤도별 침하량 차이가 상대적으로 작게 나타났다. 또한 콘크리트 궤도 단면의 침하량 저감을 위한 말뚝 전면기초 시공의 경우, 무보강 단면의 해석결과보다 지지력이 확보되어 침하량 감소가 나타났으며, 말뚝의 길이가 증가될수록 침하량 감소 효과가 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 하중형태의 경우는 기존 설계에 사용되었던 객차 하중에 의한 침하량보다 기관차 하중에 의한 침하량이 더 크게 발생하여 기관차 하중을 통한 궤도 설계를 할 경우 좀 더 안전측 설계가 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • A piled raft foundation is one of the systems used to reduce the settlement of structures. However, the general design method for a piled raft foundation system assumes that the piles only support external loads, which exclude the bearing capacity of the raft itself. In this study, an experimental model test was performed to evaluate the raft capacity for the external load on the sand. Additionally, a part of the sandy ground under the raft was replaced with a gravel mat to reinforce the piled raft foundation system and increase the bearing capacity. Then, parametric studies of the reinforced ground were performed to determine the displacement and load-sharing ratio of the piled raft foundation system.

  • The piled raft foundation Is an innovative design concept to reduce both the maximum settlement and differential settlements caused by concentrated building loads and load eccentricities, and also to reduce the bending moments of the raft. The main concern given in the design of piled raft foundations is proper judgments both of relative proportions of loads carried by the raft and piles, and of the effect of the pile support on the maximum and differential settlements In the present study, the piled raft foundation used in the foundation system of Richensia Building at Youido, Seoul is introduced and is carried out analyzing the results of field tests such as plate load tests, large plate load test, pile load test, and piled raft load test.

  • Applicability of constructing piled raft foundations on soft clay has been given attention in recent years. Lack of sufficient stiffness for soil and thus excessive settlements to allow higher contribution of piles is the major concern in this regard. This paper presents a numerical investigation of performance of piled-raft foundations on soft clay with focusing on a case study. A 3D FEM numerical model is developed using ABAQUS. The model was calibrated by comparing physical and numerical modeling results of other researchers. Then the possibility of using piled-raft system in construction of foundation for a water storage tank in Sarbandar, Iran is assessed. Soil strength parameters in the numerical model were calibrated using the instrumentation data of a heavily instrumented preloading project at the construction site. The results indicate that choosing the proper combination of length and spacing for piles can lead to acceptable differential and total settlements while a high percentage of total bearing capacity of piles can be mobilized, which is an efficient solution for the project. Overall, the construction of piled-rafts on soft clays is promising as long as the total settlement of the structure is not imposing restrictions such as the common 25 mm allowable settlement. But instead, if higher allowable settlements are adopted, for example in the case of rigid steel tanks, the method shall be applicable with considerable cost savings.

  • 말뚝지지 전면기초는 무리말뚝 기초뿐만 아니라 전면기초까지도 연직력에 대하여 효과적으로 저항하기 때문에 지지력의 증가, 부등침하의 감소, 전체 침하량 억제 등의 장점이 있어 경제적인 기초형식으로 간주될 수 있다. 그러나 실제 말뚝지지 전면기초의 설계 및 설계 기준에 있어 전면기초의 지지력을 고려하고 있지 않기 때문에 전면 기초에 의한 지지력 증가 및 침하량 억제 효과는 고려되지 못하는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 말뚝지지 전면기초의 거동특성을 분석하고 전면기초에 의한 지지력 증대효과를 정량화하기 위하여 원심모형시험을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 말뚝지지 전면기초, 무리말뚝기초, 전면기초, 단독 말뚝기초 등 각 기초형식에 대해 별도의 실험을 수행하였으며, 말뚝지지 전면기초의 지지력 특성 변화를 분석하고 다른 기초형식의 지지력 특성변화 분석 결과와 비교하였다.
