Book Synopsis Behavior of Pipe Piles in Sand by : Magued Iskander
Download or read book Behavior of Pipe Piles in Sand written by Magued Iskander and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-01-17 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major difficulties in predicting the capacity of pipe piles in sand has resulted from a lack of understanding of the physical processes that control the behavior of piles during installation and loading. This monograph presents a detailed blue print for developing experimental facilities necessary to identify these processes. These facilities include a unique instrumented double-walled pipe-pile that is used to delineate the frictional stresses acting against the external and internal surfaces of the pile. The pile is fitted with miniature pore-pressure transducers to monitor the generation of pore water pressure during installation and loading. A fast automatic laboratory pile hammer capable of representing the phenomena that occur during pile driving was also developed and used.

Book Synopsis Plugging of Closed and Open-ended Pipe Piles in Sands by : Wissam Hadi Shijhait

This book was released on 2014-02-28 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plugging of pipe piles is an important phenomenon, which is not adequately accounted for in the current design recommendations of open ended pipe piles. An open-ended pipe pile is said to be plugged when the soil inside the pile moves down with the pile, resulting in the pile becoming effectively closed-ended. Plugging is believed to result in an increase in horizontal stresses between the pile and the surrounding soil, which results in an increase in skin friction. The present study investigates the effect of plug on pile load capacity and effect of plug removal. Different parameters are considered such as pile diameter to length ratio, type of installation in sand of different densities, removal of plug in three stages (50%, 75% and 100%) with respect to length of plug. Kerbala sand, which is used as a foundation soil is poorly graded clean sand. The sand was prepared at different densities using a raining technique. To simulate the pile load test in the field, a new apparatus was manufactured. A driving-pressing system for pile installation was manufactured in this study. The soil plug is removed by a device manufactured to remove the soil column entrapped inside the pipe piles

Book Synopsis Effect of Stress Level of Surrounding Soil on Pile Capacity in Sand by : Saif I. Alzabeebee
Download or read book Effect of Stress Level of Surrounding Soil on Pile Capacity in Sand written by Saif I. Alzabeebee and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-26 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reduction of angle of internal friction with increasing stress level of sandy soil is widely recognized and noticed by many researchers. There are limited studies on the effect of this reduction on bearing capacity of piles. This book presents a study of the effect of this reduction on axially loaded bored piles embedded in dense and medium sand by using finite element approach. The soil modeled using a hyperbolic soil model with an empirical equation to account for the reduction of angle of internal friction with increasing stress level while the concrete bored pile modeled as a linear elastic material. Investigating the effect of the stress level on behavior of piles, bearing capacity factor Nq, and distribution of shear stresses in soil-pile interface along the pile shaft were made during this work by pass through a wide range of stresses by using piles with dimensions starting from laboratory dimensions and goes towards field dimensions with an embedment ratio L/D range (15, 20, 25, 30, and 40). Also, two models to estimate pile capacity in medium and dense sand are developed in this work using statistical techniques based on finite element analysis results.

Book Synopsis Effect of Pile Installation Method on Pipe Pile Behavior in Sands by : K. Paik
Download or read book Effect of Pile Installation Method on Pipe Pile Behavior in Sands written by K. Paik and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open-ended pipe piles are often used for the foundations of both land and offshore structures because of their relatively low driving resistance. In this study, calibration chamber tests were conducted on model pipe piles installed in sands with different soil conditions in order to investigate the effects of the pile installation method on penetration parameters and bearing capacity. Results of the test program showed that both the hammer blow count necessary to install the piles and the incremental filling ratio (IFR), which is used to indicate the degree of soil plugging in open-ended piles, decreased (1) with increasing hammer weight for the same driving energy, and (2) with increasing hammer weight at the same fall height. The base and shaft load capacities of the piles were observed to increase (1) with increasing hammer weight for the same driving energy, and (2) with increasing hammer weight for the same fall height. It was also observed that the noise level observed during pile driving decreases (1) as the driving energy decreases and (2) as the hammer weight increases for the same driving energy. Model jacked piles were also installed and tested. The jacked piles were found to have higher bearing capacities than identical driven piles under similar conditions, mostly due to the more effective development of soil plugging in jacking than in driving.
Book Synopsis Dynamic Characterization of Open-ended Pipe Piles in Marine Environment by : Dezi Francesca
Download or read book Dynamic Characterization of Open-ended Pipe Piles in Marine Environment written by Dezi Francesca and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter is focused on the experimental investigations that can be carried out to dynamically characterize open-ended pipe piles in marine environment. Different test typologies, such as impact load test, free vibration test, forced vibration test, and ambient vibration test, are presented and described with the purpose to provide the right tools to analyze the dynamic behavior, at both small and large strains, of single piles or a system of piles. The appropriate instrumentation, with the suitable protection from marine environment and pile driving installation procedure, is also illustrated. Furthermore, the most common signal processing techniques useful for handling the experimental raw data are addressed together with the analysis techniques for the evaluation of the modal parameters: natural frequencies, damping ratios, and mode shapes. Finally, a part of the experimental campaign carried out by the authors on near-shore open-ended pipe piles is reported as a case study.
