The analysis and computation of the bearing capacity of rigid piles under inclined loads is usually based on a simplified pressure distribution along the pile length. Test data of actual pressures on such piles are scarce. Experiments were conducted with an instrumented 75 mm rigid circular pile embedded in homogeneous sand. The ultimate capacity of the pile was experimentally determined for different loading conditions and compared with analyses and test data reported previously. The interaction relationship of the load inclination on the ultimate capacity was obtained in the form of a polar diagram. Keywords: piles, lateral loads, cohesionless soils.

The results of full-displacement pressuremeter tests in beds of sand, clay, and layered soil have been used to estimate the lateral soil pressures, ultimate capacity, and displacements of instrumented rigid model piles under eccentric and inclined loads. Comparisons of these estimates with observations on the piles under horizontal load and pure moment have been made and reasonable agreement is found. The analyses are also compared with some field case records.

Previous analyses of the ultimate resistance and displacements of rigid piles under lateral loads and moments have been extended to the general case of eccentric and inclined loads on flexible piles by using the concept of effective embedment depths of equivalent rigid piles. Recent research on the behaviour of large model tests on instrumented rigid and flexible piles under eccentric and inclined loads in sand, clay, and layered soil is summarized. Reasonable agreement is found between observed and predicted behaviour. The proposed method of analysis is also supported by comparison with the results of many field case records of single piles and large pile groups under lateral loads indifferent types of soils.

Based on the theoretical analysis results, the bearing behavior of squeezed and branch pile under vertical load and lateral load was analyzed in this paper. The mean works include the influence of vertical load on the pile lateral bearing capacity and influence of the lateral load on the vertical load bearing capacity. The factors influence the bearing capacity of pile such as elastic modulus of soil around and under pile bottom, pile length, plate position are also analyzed.

A series of static and shake table tests were conducted on threaded, brazed and mechanical pipe joints, commonly used in fire protection systems, to understand their integrity under extreme lateral loads, of the type that would be expected in large earthquakes. This paper presents the measured loads and deflections of the joints up to the point of failure. It also describes the joints’ static and dynamic failure mode. This information can be used to model the joints’ flexibility under large lateral displacements, determine their ultimate capacity, and help understand their leak and rupture characteristics.

Interactive Buckling

Finite element models (FE models) of high-strength steel Q420 (yield strength 420 MPa) circular tubes considering residual stresses and local and overall geometric imperfections were established and verified against existing test data. Based on parameter analysis, it was derived that the reduction of ultimate capacity resulting from residual stresses was up to 11.8%. When slenderness ratio was larger than 25, the effect of overall geometric imperfection played a major role compared with that of local geometric imperfection, which resulted in the reduction of the ultimate capacity of about 11.5%. Through tracking the failure process, it was found that, in the initial stage of loading, the deformation of columns mainly presents overall bending. When the load increased near the ultimate load, local buckling occurred and the bearing capacity decreased rapidly. The D/t limit value 27 was determined for preventing the local buckling, and the overall slenderness λl limit value 40 was proposed to distinguish whether local buckling occurs. Based on the FEM result and test data, the applicability of ASCE48-05 and AS4100 for local buckling resistance was evaluated. Continuing the result of stub columns, curve a in GB50017-2017 and in Eurocode 3 of the overall buckling factor φ was proposed to be used in EWM and DSM for estimating the interactive buckling resistance of circular tubes of Q420 under axial compression.

The analytical solution of a single pipe piles under axially and laterally loads is presented, when the laterally loads is optional free load. As piles foundations are becoming a preferred foundation type, piles usually work under simultaneous axial and lateral loads in engineering. To analyze the function of free loads to pipe piles under inclined loads conditions, in the basis of ‘m’ method, deformation differential equation of elastic piles under inclined loads is established first in the paper with analytical method. Differential equation has two parts in according to the piles in the earth or in the air, and lateral deformation, obliquity, moment; shearing force of the piles can be gotten respectively by soluting equations. In the end of the paper, influences of several parameters is analyzed of the top axial loads, the top lateral loads and the free loads, and their influence curves are given.
