Coaction Analysis on Pile-Net-Cushion-Soil

Abstract:

In accordance of the principles of stress continuousness and displacement coordination, the interactions model of pile and pile, pile and soil are set up;Accoring to the symmetry of the models,1/4 of the models are extracted to set up three-dimension multipile composite foundation models.The flexibility matrix of the three reinforcements are modified to build a global flexibility matrix with the consideration of cushion's compression; Interaction coefficients of the analytic calculation are lower than those of the finite element when pile lengthen is diversity.The comparison between the on-site measured data from the literature review and results of the analytic calculation shows the settlements in the analytic calculation are smaller than those in the measured data, and the model measurements are very close to the curves from the analytic calculation. All these prove that the analytic methods proposed by this research are accurate and may function as a reference to engineering.
