Research on Negative Skin Friction on Pile by a Simple Model Experiment

Article Preview

Abstract:

Accompanied by the substantive construction of domestic ports, the negative skin friction on pile becomes a common problem. In order to provide references for the related experiment research in the future, the designs of model experiments reported in the literatures were emphatically analyzed and compared. Compared to conventional pile model test, the model test on negative skin friction on pile needs to apply load on soil surface and it is difficult to simulate large surcharge by conventional test methods. An experimental scheme which could produce large surcharge load by conventional test conditions is given in this paper. Pile stress, displacement of pile top and layered settlement of soil was tested under different surcharge level. The depth of neutral point and the group effect of NSF are discussed.
