A Study of the Prediction of Load-Settlement Curves of Bored Piles with an Improved Grey Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

An improved grey system model GM(1,1) was proposed in this paper, considered that the large difference between predicted results and measured load-settlement relationship results of bored piles, in which the prediction results were given by the original theory. The complete and incomplete load-settlement curves from pile loading tests were fitted and predicated by the improved grey model. The results calculated with empirical equations or methods in technical code for building pile foundations were compared with those predicted with the improved grey model. Analysis of a case study showed that the results predicted by the improved grey theory model GM(1,1) had higher precision, which demostrated that this improved theory was of significance in engineering practice.
