More detailed information about the bearing capacity and integrity of the pile can be obtained by high strain dynamic test than by dead-load test [1]. Engineering examples show that the bearing capacity of the prestressed pipe pile gradually increase with the growth of the resting time, and the ultimate bearing capacity of the pile can reach up to 2 times more than the initial bearing capacity. Through the study of the time effect mechanism, it is found that the increment of ultimate bearing capacity of the single pile is mainly caused by side soil resistance. The end resistance has little influence on the time effect of bearing capacity of pile.

Based on BP neural network, this paper had a prediction on ultimate bearing capacity of prestressed pipe pile. Taking pile diameter, effective pile length, ultimate average value of friction standard value, ultimate average value of end resistance standard value as influences factors, the prediction model of pile bearing capacity based on BP neural network was obtained. It was found that, the average value of absolute value for the relative error of fitting value of pile bearing capacity compared with the observed value for 70 groups of independent variables training BP neural network model was 3.1498%; And the average value of absolute value for the relative error of prediction value of pile bearing capacity compared with the observed value for 10 groups of independent variables validating BP neural network model was 3.50126% whose precision was better than ANFIS’5.32293%. The following conclusion can be drawn that, the prediction model of ultimate bearing capacity of prestressed pipe pile based on BP neural network is feasible.

Based on the present tecnology of pile, a method of compacted forming concrete pile applied in the subsea base is studied. Using the method of finite different the procedure of compacted forming at the end of steel pipe pile has been simulated in the particular geology soil, the effects of the elastic modulus, cohesion, friction and dilation on the compacted behaviour are aquired and the bearing capacity has been calculated. The results show that the ultimate bearing capacity of this pile increases approximate 3 times bigger than the steel pipe pile with the same dimentions, in addition, its curve of Q-S is smooth and ultimate feature point is indistinct, which proves that this tecnology of compacted forming concrete pile is able to increase the bearing capacity prominently.

Vertical ultimate bearing capacity of static pressure pipe pile is influenced by comprehensive factors, such as pile body, soil around pile and construction conditions., and the relationship between the impact factors and ultimate bearing capacity of a single pile is highly complexity and non-linear. This paper is based on collecting the data from static load tests in typical geological conditions of Liao-shen area, construction records, and test pile sites. And then combine analysis of principal component with SVM to analysis the prediction of the single pile’s vertical ultimate bearing capacity. This model can reduce the number of SVM input variable dimension to improve speed of training support vector effectively. At the same time it can eliminate the influence factors of multiple correlation. The results show that the proposed principal component analysis SVM model has good predictive accuracy and generalization ability, and opens up new avenue of research for analysis of static pressure pipe pile vertical bearing properties.

Estimation of ultimate bearing capacity (UBC) of pre-stressed high-strength concrete (PHC) pipe pile is critical for optimizing pile design and construction. In this study, a standard penetration test (SPT), static cone penetration test (CPT) and static load test (SLT) were carried out to assess, determine and compare the UBC of the PHC pipe pile embedded in saturated sandy layers at different depths. The UBC was calculated with three methods including the JGJ94-2008 method, Meyerhof method and Schmertmann method based on in-situ blow count (N) of SPT (SPT-N) which was higher than the values recommended in survey report regardless of pile length. The average UBC values calculated with cone-tip resistance and sleeve friction from CPTs was also higher than the value recommended in the survey report. Moreover, the actual UBC values directly obtained by load-displacement curves from SLTs were in line with the calculated values based on in-situ SPTs and CPTs, but approximately twice as high as the values recommended in the survey report regardless of pile length. For the SPT method, the application of bentonite mud in saturated sand layers is critical for the assessment of pile capacity in the survey phase, CPTs can provide reliable results regardless of soil characteristics and groundwater if the soil layer can be penetrated, and SLTs are necessary to accurately determine the UBC in complex stratum.

In the present work, we employed artificial neural network (ANN) that is optimized with two hybrid models, namely imperialist competition algorithm (ICA) as well as particle swarm optimization (PSO) in the case of the problem of bearing capacity of shallow circular footing systems. Many types of research have shown that ANNs are valuable techniques for estimating the bearing capacity of the soils. However, most ANN training models have some drawbacks. This study aimed to focus on the application of two well-known hybrid ICA–ANN and PSO–ANN models to the estimation of bearing capacity of the circular footing lied in layered soils. In order to provide the training and testing datasets for the predictive network models, extensive finite element (FE) modelling (a database includes 2810 training datasets and 703 testing datasets) are performed on 16 soil layer sets (weaker soil rested on stronger soil and vice versa). Note that all the independent variables of ICA and PSO algorithms are optimized utilizing a trial and error method. The input includes upper layer thickness/foundation width (h/B) ratio, footing width (B), top and bottom soil layer properties (e.g., six of the most critical soil characteristics), vertical settlement of circular footing (s), where the output was taken ultimate bearing capacity of the circular footing (Fult). Based on coefficient of determination (R2) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), amounts of (0.979, 0.076) and (0.984, 0.066) predicted for training dataset and amounts of (0.978, 0.075) and (0.983, 0.066) indicated in the case of the testing dataset of proposed PSO–ANN and ICA–ANN models of prediction network, respectively. It demonstrates a higher reliability of the presented PSO–ANN model for predicting ultimate bearing capacity of circular footing located on double sandy layer soils.
