In the re-pressed tests of jacked pipe piles in soft clay, it was observed that the re-pressed starting pressure can reach to more than 2.5 times of the final pressure for 25 days after finishing the installation; and it increased more rapidly in early period than later. Through the study of the time effect mechanism, it is found that the increment of ultimate bearing capacity of the single pile is mainly caused by side soil resistance. The end resistance has little influence on the time effect of bearing capacity of pile. According to the simulation result of the test data, the relationship between pile side resistance and time can be described with logarithmic curve. By this new computing model, the side frictional resistance in different resting time can be obtained, and then the ultimate bearing capacity. It is proved that this method is feasible because the values of side soil resistance calculated by the computing model with software are well consistent with the field tests results.

Through the study on the characteristics of bearing capacity of jacked pile in soft soil, it is found that the increment of ultimate bearing capacity of the single pile is mainly determined by pile side resistance. The end resistance has little influence on the time effect of bearing capacity of pile. The relationship between ultimate bearing capacity and time can be expressed with logarithmic curve. According to penetration mechanism of jacked pile, the expansion of a series of spherical cavities in semi-infinite space is used to simulate the process of pile installation. Soil is assumed as Mohr-Coulomb material. Based on the theory of spherical cavity expansion, estimating formulas were proposed to calculate the ultimate side frictional resistance. Then the ultimate bearing capacity of single pile in different time can be obtained. Analyses show that the calculation results are close to the measured data and the error between computed and measured value is little. So it is acceptable for the formula to forecast bearing capacity of jacked piles.

Soil reinforcement by means of geogrid is an effective method of increasing the ultimate bearing capacity (UBC) of granular soils. In this study a new system, created by adding cubic anchors to ordinary geogrids, is introduced to increase the UBC of granular soils. This system is called “grid-anchor” (G-A). To analyse the performance of the G-A system in increasing the UBC of granular soils, 45 experimental tests and 9 field tests were performed, the results of which show that the G-A system is 1.8 times more capable than ordinary geogrids in increasing the UBC in square foundations. Furthermore, the failure of soil reinforced by the ordinary geogrid takes place at a settlement of 9% of the foundation width, while the same value for the G-A system is almost 13%.

Utilizing general finite element software ANSYS, the finite element computing model of the steel spatial tubular joint is built, which is used to analyze the mechanical properties under dead loads through changing its design parameters. According to the obtained and compared consequences, the different design parameters including stiffening ring thickness, cross-shaped ribbed plate thickness and stiffening ring length exert different influence on ultimate bearing capacity of the steel spatial tubular joint. Specifically, the ultimate bearing capacity under dead loads is affected by setting stiffening ring and changing cross-shaped ribbed plate thickness significantly. In contrast, if the thickness and length of stiffening ring are changed, the impact is insignificant. The results and conclusion can provide reference which is useful to optimize the design of steel spatial tubular joint in such category.

The dissipating of pore water pressure caused by pile sinking is one of the main factors resulting in time effect of ultimate bearing capacity of pile.The pore water pressure is monitored at each observing point during pile sinking and after that. With the pore pressure plan embedded in advance, by means of spot test in the process of pile sinking, under this geological conditions of the pile foundation by referring to the second phase project of the free port logistics processing zone in Dongjiang, Tianjin.The change law of the distribution and dissipation of excess pore water pressure with time, depth, radial distance and permeability coefficient of soil was also discussed. It’s found that the excess pore water pressure attenuates approximately linearly with the increase of the distance from the pile heart and the scope influenced is around 10d. As the numerical simulation accord with the test results effectively, promote the results then get the change rule of pile bearing capacity with time.The formula of pile bearing capacity about time effect in dredge fill was deduced for engineering reference.The effect of soil internal friction angle on the ultimate bearing capacity of pile was discussed. Numerical simulation shows that the ultimate bearing capacity of pipe pile increases over time and keeps stable after 20d.The ultimate limit bearing capacity is 1473kN with increase of 12.3%, the time when it reaches the stable state is in accord with the excess pore water pressure dissipation monitored at each observing point. The larger the internal frictional angle of soil becomes, the more the ultimate bearing capacity is. The angle exceeding 20°,the bearing capacity would not increase as internal frictional angle of soil increases.

Considering the deficiency of traditional anchors, we propose a new type of inflatable controlled anchor system in this paper. The working mechanism and its structural composition of newly designed inflatable controlled device are discussed in detail. To investigate the performance and pull-out capacity of this new anchor system, a series of field tests were carried out under different inflation pressure conditions. By comparing these test results with those of traditional grouting anchors, a full-process constitutive model of anchor-soil interface is proposed to depict the pull-out characteristics of the inflatable controlled anchor. The results show that the ultimate bearing capacity of the inflatable controlled anchor is greater than that of the traditional grouting anchor when the inflation pressure is greater than 0.2 MPa and the ultimate bearing capacity of this new anchor improves obviously with the increase of inflation pressure. When the inflation pressure reaches 0.4 MPa, the ultimate bearing capacity of the inflatable controlled anchor is 2.08 times that of the traditional grouting anchor. Through comparison with the experimental curves, the results of model calculation indicate that the proposed anchor-soil interface constitutive equation can describe the pull-out characteristics of the inflatable controlled anchor. The designed controlled anchor has the advantages of no grouting, recyclability, rapid formation of anchoring force, and adjustable anchoring force.

More detailed information about the bearing capacity and integrity of the pile can be obtained by high strain dynamic test than by dead-load test [1]. Engineering examples show that the bearing capacity of the prestressed pipe pile gradually increase with the growth of the resting time, and the ultimate bearing capacity of the pile can reach up to 2 times more than the initial bearing capacity. Through the study of the time effect mechanism, it is found that the increment of ultimate bearing capacity of the single pile is mainly caused by side soil resistance. The end resistance has little influence on the time effect of bearing capacity of pile.

Gypseous considered as problematic soils also gypseous soils are distributed all over the world, as well as in large areas of Iraq, including Al- Najaf city. Gypseous soils are characterized by high strength in dry conditions, but they collapse due to water infiltration process under constant head conditions. In this research, a field study investigates gypseous soils and the effect of soaked state on the bearing capacity and settlement of the gypseous soils are investigated. A site with a high percentage of gypsum (about 25%) was selected to perform plate load tests. The test was carried out in a natural and soaked state on the gypseous soils by plate load test with time-dependent. The results show the ultimate bearing capacity of gypseous soil from plate load test are decrease under the soaking condition and maximum settlement increase. The angle of internal friction (ø) of gypseous soil we obtained from the direct shear test is 47.620 for natural soil. The ultimate bearing capacity of gypseous soil was calculated from the Terzaqhi’s equation and the high difference between field tests and theoretical results.

Ultimate lateral bearing capacity of rock mass is the base of the research of laterally loaded drilled shafts socketed in rock mass. The ultimate bearing capacity is often not available because of the limitation of loading ability in field tests. Numerical tests are used here to simulate the drilled shafts socketed in rock mass and expand the load-displacement curve obtained from field tests. Common methods of determining ultimate lateral bearing capacity are also analyzed and compared here. At last, a relatively accurate method of determining laterally loaded drilled shafts socketed in rock mass is recommended.
