A parametric study of different analytical design methods to determine the axial bearing capacity of monopiles

The subject of the study is the study of technically possible localization options for the contrailer terminal. The relevance is related to the practical need to improve the organization of the station through its track and territorial development.Used analytical, design methods, evolutionary and functional approach.Using the evolutionary-functional approach, alternative, technically possible options for improving the operation of the station were identified, taking into account the location of the contrailer terminal as part of the transport hub.The possible options for the station’s development were critically evaluated. It was found that option 1 is located close to the station and requires minimal time to perform shunting operations. The advantages of option 2: the proximity of a year-round working seaport; a large free area for construction and no intersection with the main tracks of the station. It is noted that the final decision is possible only after the economic assessment of the options.

Design And Construction

Embankment construction on soft soil may result in excessive settlement, loss of bearing capacity, or sliding instability. However, geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported (GRPS) embankments offer an effective technique to overcome the problems resulting from soft foundations soils. This paper presents a review of the most important parameters affecting the behaviour of GRPS embankments as well as design methods that estimate tensile forces in the geosynthetic layers and load efficiency. Results highlight the importance of using GRPS embankments, but also reveal the inconsistencies between design methods. Finally, general conclusions about the design and construction of GRPS systems are presented.

Calculation Results

Based on the experiment results of five plain steel plate-light weight concrete hollow deck specimens, the design methods of the composite decks which mainly including the calculation method of the bearing capacity and calculation method of the flexural rigidity were introduced. In the paper, the bearing capacity and flexural rigidity of the composite at two orthogonal directions, which including the direction parallel to the pipes and the direction perpendicular to the pipes, were both introduced. The calculation results of the bearing capacity and middle-span deflection were in good agreement with those of the experimental results, and in the return calculation methods were verified. Therefore, the design methods and calculation methods were useful to the design of this new type composite deck.

The Way

The computing of end-bearing capacity of pile has vital significances for foundation design while the foundations analysis is usually problematic due to those diverse soils and engineering conditions. Though various CPT-based methods which have already been applied in numerous huge engineering practices are available for the analysis of pile foundation bearing capacity home and abroad, there still seemed lacking legitimate guidance assisting to select these formulations quite effectively. In this paper, five CPT-based design methods are compared in deep, the realization through computer program is also presented, with the capacity data accumulated from pile engineering coming into mind, we are on the way to making designers choose better methods during the designing process.
