Analysis and Performance of Piled Rafts Designed Using Innovative Criteria

In this paper the main criteria adopted for the design and some aspects of the observed behavior of the piled foundations of a cluster of circular steel tanks are reported. They were designed to store sodium hydroxide, a toxic liquid with a unit weight of 15.1?kN/m3. Shallow foundations would have been safe against a bearing capacity failure, while the predicted settlement was beyond the allowed limit. Accordingly piles were designed to reduce the settlement and improve the overall performance of the foundations. While conventional capacity based design approach led to a total of 160 piles to support the five tanks the settlement based design approach led to a total of 65 piles achieving significant savings on the cost of the project. The settlements of four out of the five tanks were measured and for two out of the five tanks the load sharing among the raft and the piles was also observed. Both the analyses carried out at the design stage and the back-analyses of the observed behavior were based on the interaction factors method as implemented in the computer code NAPRA [Russo (1998), Int. J. Numer. Anal. Methods Geomech., 22(6), 477–493].

Numerical differential quadrature method for Reissner/Mindlin plates on two-parameter foundations

Approximate solutions for the bending of moderately thick rectangular plates on two-parameter elastic foundations (Pasternak-type) as described by Mindlin's theory are presented. The plates are subjected to an arbitrary combination of clamped and simply-supported boundary conditions. An efficient computational technique, the differential quadrature (DQ) method, is employed to transform the governing differential equations and boundary conditions into a set of linear algebraic equations for approximate solutions. These resulting algebraic equations are solved numerically. In this study, the accuracy of the DQ method is established by direct comparison with results in the existing literature. The convergence properties of the method are illustrated for different combinations of boundary conditions. The deflections, moments and shear forces at selected locations are tabulated in detail for different elastic foundations. The efficiency and simplicity of the solution method are highlighted.     

Influence of Spatially Variable Side Friction on Single Drilled Shaft Resistance and LRFD Resistance Factors

Load and resistance factor design (LRFD) is a method that aims at meeting specified target reliabilities (probabilities of failure) of engineered systems. The present work focuses on ultimate side friction resistance for axial loads on single cylindrical drilled shaft foundations in the presence of spatially variable rock/soil strength. Core sample data are assumed to provide reliable information about local strength in terms of mean, coefficient of variation and spatial correlation structure (variogram) at a site. The geostatistical principle of support up-scaling is applied to quantify the reduction in variability between local strength and the average ultimate shaft side friction resistance without having to recur to lengthy stochastic finite difference/element simulations. Site and shaft specific LRFD resistance factors (Φ values) are given based on the assumption of lognormal load and resistance distributions and existing formulas recommended by the Federal Highway Administration. Results are efficiently represented in dimensionless charts for a wide range of target reliabilities, shaft dimensions, and geostatistical parameters including nested variograms of different types with geometric and/or zonal anisotropies. Field data of local rock strength is used to demonstrate the method and to evaluate the sensitivity of obtained resistance factors to potentially uncertain variogram parameters.     

Sensitivity of Shallow Foundation Response to Model Input Parameters

From a predictive point of view, it is desirable to characterize the effect of varying model input parameters on the seismic response of soil-foundation systems. In this paper, this issue is studied for shallow foundation systems in dry dense sand with varying vertical factors of safety, embedment depths, demand levels, and moment to shear ratios. Response parameters considered are the moment, shear, sliding, settlement, and rotation demands of the foundation. First-order sensitivity analyses indicate that among the soil input parameters, the friction angle has the most significant effect on capturing the foundation force and displacement demands. Furthermore, the uncertainty in friction angle contributes 80% of the variance of the settlement demand and 40% of the variance of the moment demand. It is also found that the uncertainty in Poisson’s ratio has a marginal effect in predicting the studied foundation response. Although the findings of this study are limited to the parameter space considered herein and care should be taken for broader applicability, it does shed light on which parameters uncertainty should be minimized.     

双排抗滑桩的推力分担及优化设计

 大截面的双排抗滑桩具有复杂的受力特性。建立有限元模型,分析不同排距下双排桩对推力的分担,分析结果显示：双排桩上的推力总和要大于只设前排桩时的推力;当排距较小时,滑坡推力几乎全由后排桩承担,由于后排桩的遮蔽作用,前排桩达不到最佳抗滑效果,随着排距增加,前排桩分担的推力逐渐增加,当达到一定排距后,双排桩完全独立工作,各自承担一部分滑体,前后双排桩均达到最佳抗滑效果;并在推力分担、支挡后稳定系数的计算基础上,提出以双排桩的推力和、稳定系数和双排桩承担的推力差为目标,建立用于双排抗滑桩的多目标优化,优选出具有多种属性的双排抗滑桩的排距和推力分担。
