Following the previous investigation reported in the first part on vertical piles, this second part of the paper presents an analysis of the results of loading tests on rigid batter piles under inclined load in sand. The bearing capacity of axially loaded batter piles is discussed by comparing experimental results and theoretical estimates. The theory for ultimate resistance of rigid vertical piles under horizontal loads is extended to that of laterally loaded batter piles. Model test results are compared with those of theoretical estimates and good agreement is found. Methods of analysis of vertical piles under inclined loads are extended to those of rigid batter piles under inclined loads in sand and the analysis is compared with some test results.

Large Model

Previous analyses of the ultimate resistance and displacements of rigid piles under lateral loads and moments have been extended to the general case of eccentric and inclined loads on flexible piles by using the concept of effective embedment depths of equivalent rigid piles. Recent research on the behaviour of large model tests on instrumented rigid and flexible piles under eccentric and inclined loads in sand, clay, and layered soil is summarized. Reasonable agreement is found between observed and predicted behaviour. The proposed method of analysis is also supported by comparison with the results of many field case records of single piles and large pile groups under lateral loads indifferent types of soils. Key words : bearing capacity, displacement, eccentric loads, inclined loads, layered soil, pile.

Multiple Holes

Aluminium plates containing a single hole or multiple holes in a row are recently becoming very popular among architects and consultant engineers in many constructional applications, due to their reduced weight, as well as facilitating ventilation and light penetration of the buildings. However, there are still uncertainties concerning their structural behaviour, preventing them from wider utilization. In the present paper, local buckling phenomenon of perforated aluminium plates has been studied using the finite element method. For the purposes of the research work, plates with simply supported edges in the out-of-plane direction and subjected to uniaxial compression are examined. In view of perforations, circular cut-outs and the total cut-out size has been varied between 5 and 40% of the total plate area. Moreover, different perforation patterns have been investigated, from a single, central cut-out to a more refined pattern consisting of up to 25 holes equally distributed over the plate. Regarding the material characteristics, several aluminium alloys are considered and compared to steel grade A36 on plates of different slenderness. For each case the critical (Euler) buckling load and the ultimate resistance has been determined.A study into the boundary conditions of the plate showed that the restrictions at the edges parallel to the load direction have a large influence on the critical buckling load. Restraining the top or bottom edge does not significantly influence the resistance of the plate.The results showed that the ultimate resistance of aluminium plates containing multiple holes occurs at considerably larger out-of-plane displacement as that of full plates. For very large total cut-out, a plate containing a central hole has a larger resistance than a plate with equal cut-out percentage but with multiple holes. The strength and deformation in the post-critical regime, i.e. the difference between the critical buckling load and the ultimate resistance, differs significantly for different number of holes and cut-out percentage.

Ultimate Resistance

This article presents the study of reinforced concrete columns strengthened using a partial jacket consisting of a 35mm self-compacting concrete layer added to its most compressed face and tested in combined compression and uniaxial bending until rupture. Wedge bolt connectors were used to increase bond at the interface between the two concrete layers of different ages. Seven 2000 mm long columns were tested. Two columns were cast monolithically and named PO (original column) e PR (reference column). The other five columns were strengthened using a new 35 mm thick self-compacting concrete layer attached to the column face subjected to highest compressive stresses. Column PO had a 120mm by 250 mm rectangular cross section and other columns had a 155 mm by 250mm cross section after the strengthening procedure. Results show that the ultimate resistance of the strengthened columns was more than three times the ultimate resistance of the original column PO, indicating the effectiveness of the strengthening procedure. Detachment of the new concrete layer with concrete crushing and steel yielding occurred in the strengthened columns.
