The frictional capacity of smooth concrete pipe pile–cemented soil interface for pre-bored grouted planted pile

The pre-bored grouted planted (PGP) pile shaft consists of a core PHC pile and the surrounding cemented soil column. The shaft capacity of PGP pile is controlled by the PHC pile–cemented soil–soil interface. In this paper, the effect of curing time on the frictional capacity of smooth concrete pipe...

Description
Summary:The pre-bored grouted planted (PGP) pile shaft consists of a core PHC pile and the surrounding cemented soil column. The shaft capacity of PGP pile is controlled by the PHC pile–cemented soil–soil interface. In this paper, the effect of curing time on the frictional capacity of smooth concrete pipe pile–cemented soil interface was investigated through pile–soil interface shear tests. The test results show that the peak skin friction of pipe pile–cemented soil interface increased with the curing time. Nevertheless, the normalized peak skin friction (peak skin friction/cemented soil strength) of interface decreased with the curing time. The thickness of the cemented soil layer had a large effect on the residual skin friction of pipe pile–cemented soil interface. The scale effect also existed in the smooth concrete pipe pile–cemented soil interface shear tests, as the stiffness and shear strength of interface would decrease with the pipe pile diameter, which would eventually induce the decrease of radial confining pressure of the interface.
