AbstractIn a piled-raft foundation, the interaction between structural elements and soil continuum can be simulated very precisely by numerical modeling. In the present study, 3D finite element model has been used to examine the settlement, load-sharing, bending moment, and shear force behavior of piled-raft foundation on different soil profiles for different load configurations and pile-raft configurations (PRCs). The model incorporates the pile-to-soil and raft-to-soil interactions by means of interface elements. The effect of parameters such as pile spacing and raft thickness are also studied. For any soil profile, larger pile spacing is observed to be more efficient in reducing the average settlement and enhancing the load-sharing coefficient. The smaller pile spacing is observed to be efficient in reducing the differential settlement. For any soil profile, the behavior of piled-raft foundation is significantly affected by the PRCs and load configurations. Furthermore, the raft thickness has significant effect on settlement, bending moment, and shears force. Thus, the results of the present study can be used as guidelines for analyzing and designing large piled-raft foundation.

Randolph (1994) was proposed simplified estimated equations to carried out the proportion of load between the components of piled-raft foundation. These equations are based on elastic theory. Therefore, Authors focus on the point of applicability for nonlinear behavior of soil. This paper is a part of study on behavior of piled-raft foundation under considering the nonlinear behavior of ground. Authors already discussed the effect of nonlinear behavior of soil on the equations by Randolph. In addition, as the extension of research, authors also discussed the applicability of these equations for irregular raft shape. However, foundations were rarely set in an ideal homogeneous single soil layer in our previous studies. Therefore, the applicability of these equations are discussed in case of inhomogeneous soil (Gibson soil) in this paper.

Raft Foundations

The piled-raft foundation transfers loading to the ground by the raft and the piles together. It was proposed in the 1970s and is widely used for controlling settlement. Simplified estimate equations are used for the primary design. Equations by Randolph can presume the settlement stiffness of the piled-raft foundation and the loading share ratio from the settlement stiffness of raft and pile foundation. Raft foundations not only have regular shapes as squares, they also have some particular shape like triangular or L-plan. Therefore, different shape plans are discussed in this paper to verify the applicability of these equations. Also, these equations are proposed based on a theory of elasticity. However, the ground has nonlinear behavior even under small loading levels, so estimating the applicability of these equations when the ground behaves nonlinearly is necessary.
