The cast-in-situ concrete pipe pile is a new kind of pile used widely in China to improve the soft ground. In this paper, the general introduction of this pile was given, mainly including the pile driving machine, the technique of pile working and the structure of pile. At last, one in situ test of this pile under lateral load were given, the characteristics of displacement of pile body and displacement of pile top were analyzed. These results can give a reference for practice project.

Combined with practical engineering application, the test researches were carried out to analyze the soil compacting effects of Cast-in-situ concrete pipe pile while the pile was driven by vibration hammer. This article is focused on the characteristics of soil uplift and lateral deformation around pile, included surface soil and deep soil. In addition, the change characteristic of pore water pressure of soil around pile is also analyzed, and some useful rules were concluded. All researches are helpful to optimize the construction parameters, such as distance between piles, pile diameter etc., to improve the quality of pile foundation, also to reduce the construction impact on environment.

Aimed at problems lying in the exiting methods for calculation of laterally loaded piles installed in layered soils, the elasto-plasticity solution of cast-in-place concrete pipe pile with large diameter (PCC pile) in layered soil under lateral load based two-parameter foundation model and unity limiting force profile, deduced the finite difference solution based unity limiting force profile(LFP), established the calculation program of the displacement and internal force of pile. It was shown that the calculated pile moment and pile displacement coincided very well by computation and comparison of model test and FEM, verified the method’s correction. Meanwhile, the method was more precise and efficient than the existing conversion methods of subgrade modulus. Therefore, it could be useful for the design and analysis of PCC pile under lateral load.

A full-scale lateral load test of a pile group consisting of 16 (4 by 4) prestressed 76-cm-square concrete piles was conducted at Roosevelt Bridge, Stuart, Florida, during the summer of 1996. Presented are ( a) in situ test results, ( b) various p-y curves from these tests, and ( c) comparisons of various computer predictions (FLPIER, GROUP, and PIGR3D) using p-y curves tempered with results from a single-pile load test. From these comparisons, the best Class A prediction is made for the 16-pile group using FLPIER with nonlinear pile properties; p-y multipliers of 0.8, 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 for the leading, middle, and trailing two rows, respectively; and dilatometer test—pressuremeter test p-y curves. This prediction suggests that an average load per pile of 280 kN will produce a deflection of 0.1 m (63 kips/pile at a deflection of 3.9 in.) for the test group.

Using the model test systems self-designed, the deformation characteristics such as displacement and bending moment of cast-in-situ concrete pipe piles under lateral load were studied, the nonlinear characteristics of pile top horizontal displacement and the maximum bending moment variation with load were also analyzed by fitting the measured data. Further, the main factors such as pile length, pile diameter that affect the deformation characteristics significantly were also analyzed. The results show that the relationship between horizontal displacement of pile top and load is nonlinear hyperbolic, but the relationship of maximum bending moment and load is power function. All results can provide a reference for related pile projects.

Liquefied submarine sediments can easily lead to submarine landslides and turbidity currents, and cause serious damage to offshore engineering facilities. Understanding the rheological characteristics of liquefied sediments is critical for improving our knowledge of the prevention of submarine geo-hazards and the evolution of submarine topography. In this study, an in situ test device was developed to measure the rheological properties of liquefied sediments. The test principle is the shear column theory. The device was tested in the subaqueous Yellow River delta, and the test results indicated that liquefied sediments can be regarded as “non-Newtonian fluids with shear thinning characteristics”. Furthermore, a laboratory rheological test was conducted as a contrast experiment to qualitatively verify the accuracy of the in situ test data. Through the comparison of experiments, it was proved that the use of the in situ device in this paper is suitable and reliable for the measurement of the rheological characteristics of liquefied submarine sediments. Considering the fact that liquefaction may occur in deeper water (>5 m), a work pattern for the device in the offshore area is given. This novel device provides a new way to test the undrained shear strength of liquefied sediments in submarine engineering.
