Abstract:

To deepen the research on the mechanisms of foundation and inundation, the effect of inundation on the bearing characteristics of long and short pile foundations in loess areas was explored through modeling tests. Sixteen combined piles (8 long and 8 short) were adopted in the test, and the wet subsidence deformation was comprehensively analyzed, pile bearing capacity and deformation characteristics under the conditions of vertical load and water immersion. The results show that the Q-s curve of the long and short pile foundation under vertical load and water immersion shows a typical slow-varying curve, and the settlement of the pile end gradually increases with the increase of water immersion and load. Water immersion intensifies the deformation of the wetted soil layer around the pile, and the wetted deformation is slowed down then sharply and then slowed down again, and the increase of the wetted depth leads to the development of pile lateral friction and the downward shift of the neutral point. After 10 days of water immersion, the maximum value of negative friction resistance of long pile is 61.27 kPa, and that of short pile is 53.85 kPa. When immersed in water, in terms of the speed of negative friction resistance reduction and the range of change of the depth of the neutral point, both are the most significant side piles, and the center piles and corner piles are close to each other; the maximum negative friction resistance occurs in the corner piles, and the center piles are second, and the side piles are the last. The maximum negative friction resistance occurs in the corner pile, followed by the center pile and the last one in the side pile. After the soil body is saturated, the neutral depth ratio of the long pile (side pile) is 0.55, the neutral depth ratio of the corner pile and the center pile is 0.64, and that of the short pile is in the range of 0.62-0.64, which is close to the recommended value of the pile foundation specification. Finally, the finite element simulation experiment simulated the water immersion test through the hydraulic equivalence principle, and the results were consistent with indoor tests, indicating the reliability of the experiment.
