Through three-dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis, the punching failure’s bearing mechanism of the independent foundation under column whose slab is the size of 0.8m×0.8m×0.3m is obtained. The transfer mechanism of the foundation is spatial strut-and-tie model, where the reinforcements located in the link ranges between each adjacent corner of the slab are represented by ties, and the concrete distributed in the link ranges from the column bottom to four corners of the slab bottom are represented by struts. The indication of punching failure is that the concrete at the two ends of the struts reaches the shear-compression failure strength, and the punching cone is punched out relative to the slab, which has distinct punching failure features. A new spatial strut-and-tie model composed of four ties and four struts is proposed on the basis of clear bearing mechanism, which provides a new idea for the calculation of the punching bearing capacity of the independent foundation under column.

In this paper, a strut-and-tie model approach is presented for calculating the strength of reinforced concrete pile caps. The proposed method employs constitutive laws for cracked reinforced concrete and considers strain compatibility. This method is used to calculate the load-carrying capacity of 116 pile caps that have been tested to failure in structural research laboratories. This method is illustrated to provide more accurate estimates of behavior and capacity than the special provisions for slabs and footings of the 1999 American Concrete Institute (ACI) code, the pile cap provisions in the 2002 CRSI design handbook, and the strut-and-tie model provisions in either the 2005 ACI code or the 2004 Canadian Standards Association (CSA) A23.3 standard. The comparison shows that the proposed method consistently well predicts the strengths of pile caps with shear span-to-depth ratios ranging from 0.49 to 1.8 and concrete strengths less than 41 MPa. The proposed approach provides valuable insight into the design and behavior of pile caps.
