Considering the site geotechnical investigation report and relative standards, the safety factor of side friction of uplift bored piles in soft rock was defined according to the testing of frictional resistance between concrete short pile and lightly weathered silty mudstone.
The bedrock has no faulted structures, far from the Guangzhou-Conghua Fault and Shougouling Fault and is comparatively complete with undeveloped fissure, well mechanical properties. the bedrock lack variety and occur in the alternating layer of celadon calcareous mudstone and maroon silty mudstone, which have relatively small thickness of monolayer, less than 3 meters and have no different in anti-press intensity of rock.
Local rock has strong different weathering, affected by the lithology and fractures and groundwater.
Site representative borehole diagram as shown in Fig. 1 and rock mechanical performance indexes are shown in Table 1.
Guangdong standard "Design code for building foundation" states that the bearing capacity characteristic value of single friction short pile can be defined by the way of dividing ultimate friction resistance by safety factor that is not less than 3. the problem is that the exact value of safety factor is undefined.

Polypropylene offers high tough, impact, low density and have good binding properties, heat resistance, low moisture absorption, light weight, non toxic.
In the analysis, the percentage distributions of each control factor were used to measure the corresponding effects on the quality characteristics.
The figure 6 (c) shows the effect of spindle speed on drilling of GFR/PP composites and result indicates that spindle speed is not a significant factor affecting the roundness error.
Feed rate and Drill diameter are the highly influential parameters which affect the roundness.

On the basis of thermo-mechanical coupled FEM model which characterized the
composites liquid-solid extrusion process, the constant-velocity and non-constant-velocity extrusion
process were simulated by 3D thermo-mechanical FEM.
Thermo-mechanical FE Model Set Up FEM Formulation.
The physical model includes the thermo-physical property, the mechanical behavior, the plastic work, friction and frictional heat generation.
The thermo-physical properties of composite were calculated from the thermo-physical property of Al2O3 and LY12 (presented in Table 1) according to the mixing law.
It can be concluded that it is the mode of velocity rather than the average velocity which affect the forming temperature significantly.

Therefore, the frame mechanical properties directly affect the mechanical properties and safety of the towing machine.
And this stress performance had little effect on the overall mechanical properties of frame.
Given the analysis the weight of various parts on the frame have little effect on the stress and deformation of the frame, the main reason having effect on frame is the value of towing load, ZXZ90 towing machine has good mechanical properties doing towing operations.
Adding connecting beam between main beam lateral beam can reduce the stress concentration phenomenon, and this improving measures can further improve the mechanical properties of frame.
After analyzed, we can draw the following conclusions: (1) The tension of wire rope is the determining factor to the mechanical properties of frame; (2) The maximum stress of frame doing towing operation appeared at the area where the main vertical beam connected with the short horizontal beam, and the phenomenon of stress concentration exists to some extent; (3) According to the stress distribution, we can know that maximum stress is much smaller than the yield limit, the deformation of frame is linear elastic deformation, and the mechanical properties and security of frame are very high.

In recent years, there has been many results for the study of structural properties of granular materials.
Because of the complex, random features, many mechanical properties can not be demonstrated and explained.
The main factors which affect the movement of particles includes: 1.the shear resistance which particles need to overcome(friction force and bite force between particles) [4] [5];2.the exciting force.
Fig. 2 The distribution density of the movement of the particles changes with depth The movement of the particles which is caused by the vibrational energy has been affected by the shear resistance.
It points out: when the friction of the shear resistance is equal to zero, it affects the shallowest depth and the speed reduces fastest; on the contrary, the friction of the shear resistance is greater, it affects the deeper depth and the speed reduces slower.

If concrete is observed at the microscopic level, it can be seen to contain many interfacial transition zones (ITZ), resulting in the weakening of its mechanical properties; as the physical properties of lightweight aggregates (LWA), such as their high absorption, are clearly different from those of normal weight aggregates (NWA), they may lead to variations in the ITZ of lightweight aggregates concrete (LWAC), making its mechanical behavior different from that of normal concrete.This study takes three types of LWA with different rates of absorption as its subjects in order to examine the effects of LWA absorbency on ITZ.
ITZ, Due to the wall effect, concrete bleeding, unidirectional growth of hydration reactants, and other factors, forming properties that differ from those of cement paste.
ITZ, compared with cement paste, is characterized by high porosity and low tensile and adhesive strength, and the thickness, strength, and other factors in ITZ directly affect the properties of concrete; ITZ may therefore be considered the weakest link in the concrete[1-5].
Experimental work This study is primarily focused on investigating the microscopic properties of ITZ in LWAC.
