The Spider Net System Footing (SNSF) is a raft foundation system that commonly used in Indonesia. It contains a plate, downward ribs system for reinforcement, and the compacted filled soil. The ribs are in longitudinal and transversal, called as settlement rib and in diagonal direction, named as construction rib. This paper explores the load transfer mechanism along the plate, the ribs, filled soil and the base soil under the footing system. The mechanism is investigated by conducting full scale static load test on SNSF. Strain gauges were installed to monitor the strain increment of each footing elements during loading. 3D numerical analysis was also conducted to verify the experimental results. To analyze the results, Load-Ultimate Ratio Factor (L-URF) was proposed. L-URF was a ratio between ultimate soil bearing capacity of the SNSF and the applied loading at specific element. Higher the L-URF value means higher loading applied at its associate element. Both experimental and numerical results show that at the first stage the loading was fully carried out by the tip of the ribs and transferred to the soil stratum under the footing system. Increasing the loading, the ribs, plate, and filled soil altogether sustain the loading and then transferred to the soil stratum below the footing system. The results also affirm that SNSF generate higher bearing capacity compare with simple shallow footing.

The bearing capacity characteristics and side friction characters of post-grouting pile were studied in the static load test which included two piles with post-grouting or not. When the pile head settlements were same, the loads applied on the pile top were used to analyze the bearing properties of post-grouting pile. We got the ultimate side friction of post-grouting pile after fitting test curves of relations between friction resistance and displacement. The tests indicate that both the bearing capacity characteristics and side friction of post-grouting pile are increased in various degrees.

Prestressed high-strength concrete (PHC) pipe piles have been widely used in engineering fields in recent years; however, the influencing factors of their ultimate bearing capacity (UBC) in multilayer soil need to be further studied. In this paper, a static load test (SLT) and numerical analysis are performed to obtain the load transfer and key UBC factors of pipe piles. The results show that the UBC of the test pile is mainly provided by the pile shaft resistance (PSR), but the pile tip resistance (PTR) cannot be ignored. Many factors can change the UBC of pipe piles, but their effects are different. The UBC of the pipe pile is linearly related to the friction coefficient and the outer-to-inner diameter ratio. Changes in the pile length make the UBC increase sharply. Low temperatures can produce freezing stress at the pile–soil interface. The effect of changing the Young modulus of pile tip soil is relatively small.

<p>Collapse and falling of columnar structures such as road illumination poles installed on a bridge have been confirmed in the past earthquakes. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the seismic resistance of columnar structures from the viewpoint of securing the function as an emergency transportation route in the event of disaster. In this study, the destruction order and destruction form of the road illumination pole in the external force action were analyzed and verified, and the model specimen was produced to carry out the static load test. As a result of the experiment, it was shown that anchor bolts and wall concretes of the base were damaged antecedently.</p>

Bayesian Statistic

In static load test, most of piles do not destroy, the piles still exist capacity, which reduce the reliability index of pile foundation. This paper employs Bayesian Statistic method to update the measured capacity of piles. Meanwhile, based on updating data, the reliability index is calculated considering the destruction of piles. The case study shows that the reliability index of capacity becomes large when the time of pile destruction increases. Therefore, when judging the safety of pile foundation, it is highly necessary to consider the influence of pile destruction on reliability of piles.

This paper proposes a novel multi-cavity steel–concrete composite floor. The mechanical properties of multi-cavity steel–concrete composite floor were studied by static load test. Based on full-scale tests on 2500 × 1000 × 120 mm multi-cavity steel–concrete composite floors, the bearing capacity and failure characteristics of the composite floor were analyzed. Compared with the existing prefabricated floor, the reliability of the test was verified by finite element simulation. The influence of steel plate material thickness, floor thickness, cavity size and span on the mechanical properties of composite floor was analyzed. The results showed that the composite floor had stronger bearing capacity and better ductility and integrity than the existing precast floor. The bearing capacity and stiffness of composite floor were positively correlated with the thickness of steel plate and floor, and negatively correlated with the cavity size and span.

Spt Data

Nowadays, in situ tests have played a viable role in geotechnical engineering and construction technology. Besides lab tests conducted on undisturbed soil samples, many different kinds of in-situ tests were used and proved to be more efficient in foundation design such as pressuremeter PMT, cone penetration test CPT, standard SPT, etc. Among them, a standard penetration test (SPT for short) is easy to carry out at the site. For decades, it has proved reliable to sandy soil, but many viewpoints and opinions argued that the test was not appropriately applicable to cohesive soil because of scattered and dispersed data of SPT blow counts through different layers. This paper firstly studies how reliable the SPT data can predict the physical and mechanical properties; secondly, the soil strength is determined in terms of corrected N-SPT values, and finally the bearing capacity of a pile penetrating cohesion soil. By analyzing data from 40 boreholes located in 18 projects in Ho Chi Minh City, South VietNam, coefficients of determination between SPT numbers and physical and mechanical properties of different soil kinds are not the same: R2 = 0.623 for sand, =0.363 for sandy clay and =0.189 for clay. The spatial variability of soil properties is taken into account by calculating the scale of fluctuation θ=4.65m beside the statistically-based data in horizontal directions. Finally, the results from two theoretical approaches of predicting pile bearing capacity were compared to those of finite element program Plaxis 3D and static load test at site. Correlation between the capacity computed by using corrected N-values instead of soil strength and results of static load test has proved to be well suitable in evaluating the bearing capacity of driven and jack-in piles, particularly installing in the cohesive soil using the SPT blows.

This study aims to improve the shaft with hexagon joints to be a type not requiring welding or bolts in the static load test . In order to evaluate the bearing capacity of helical piles, two sites were selected to conduct pile installation for the field test and the pile load test. For the pile load test, the static pile load test and the dynamic pile load test were carried out, and torque was measured during pile installation for the field test to compare and analyze expected bearing capacity and thus assess the feasibility of the method for estimating the bearing capacity. The field pile load test revealed the bearing capacity of the gravity grout pile was the same or greater than 600kN in the static pile load test in accordance with AC 358 Code. The non-grout pile showed the bearing capacity the same or smaller than 600kN, suggesting gravity grouting is required. Moreover, the field pile load test was used to establish the bearing capacity equation considering the torque in pile installation, and a small number of samples were used to establish the equation which can be used as a basic data.
