Popis: Defects in different positions and degrees in pile foundations will affect the building structure’s safety and the foundation’s bearing capacity. The efficiency and accuracy of using traditional methods to identify multi-defect types of pile foundations are very low, so finding suitable methods to improve their related indicators for pile foundation safety and engineering applications is necessary. In this paper, under the condition of secondary development of finite element software ABAQUS to obtain the time-domain signal database of six kinds of multi-defect pile foundations, a multi-defect type identification method of pile foundations based on two-channel convolutional neural network (TC-CNN) and low-strain pile integrity test (LSPIT) is proposed. Firstly, simulated time-domain signals of the dynamic measurements that match the experimental results performed wavelet packet denoising. Secondly, the 1D time-domain signals before and after denoising and the corresponding 2D wavelet time–frequency maps are inputs to retain more data information and prevent overfitting. Finally, TC-CNN achieved the multi-defect type identification of concrete piles. Compared with the single-channel convolutional neural network, this method can effectively fuse 1D and 2D features, extract more potential features, and make the classification accuracy reach 99.17%.
