| Popis: | The pre-stressed high-strength concrete (PHC) nodular pile is a type of PHC pile with a variable cross-section of the pile shaft, and it has normally been applied in ground treatment projects in recent years. The PHC nodular pile shaft consists of nodules, which introduce differences for the load transfer mechanism of the PHC nodular pile compared to the conventional PHC pipe pile. In this paper, the load transfer mechanism and influencing factors of the bearing capacity of the PHC nodular pile were investigated based on a group of field tests and numerical simulations. The following conclusions were obtained based on the analysis of the field test and simulation results: the nodules along the pile could effectively increase the ultimate capacity of the PHC nodular pile, and the field test results showed that the ultimate capacity of 450 (500) mm PHC nodular piles was about 1.23–1.38 times of the 450 mm PHC pipe pile after being cured for 40 days, which can be used for the design of PHC nodular pile. The simulation results showed that the bearing capacity of the PHC nodular pile would decrease with the increase in nodular spacing and nodular length along the pile shaft, while increasing with the increase in nodular diameter, and the diameter of the nodule can be increased moderately to improve the ultimate capacity of the PHC nodular pile. |
