Model tests research on extruding soil caused by close-mouth step cross-section pipe Pile Yang QingGuang1, a, Tian Jie1,b, LIU Jie1,c , Wang Yahui1, d 1 School of Civil Engineering,Hunan University of Technology,Zhuzhou 412007,China ayqg1210@126.com, b277213482@qq.com,c2860557969@qq.com,d 546425428@qq.com Keywords: Step cross-section pipe pile;compaction effect;model tests;penetration resistance Abstract.To study extruding soil caused of close-mouth step cross-section pipe Pile, model experimentals of five static piling tests with two constant cross-section pipe piles and three step cross-scetion pipe piles are performed in lab respectively and some observation points are installed for heave amount and horizontal displacement of soil surface around piles before tests.Results show that penetration resistance improved linearly with increasing of length of pile in soil and there has a turning point which become more and more obviously with increasing of average diameter of step
Introduction For lots of advantages of concrete pipe pile,such as short construction period,high strength,guaranteed quality,easy detection, low cost,et,al,it has been used in civil engineering widly.According to achievements in stress which decline fastly form pile top to tip of pile foundation[1-3], it is obviorous waste to design cross-section of pile as uniform cross-section which can not function bearing ability of pile body material adequately.For function adequately the advantages on construction of pipe pile,improving efficiency of material and declining construction cost,step cross-section pipe pile which is connected by two or more concrete pipes with different diameters is put forward by our research group.There are a lot research fruits on compaction effect of jacked pipe pile by at home and abroad.
