Mechanism Analysis and Experimental Study of Soil-compacting by Silent Piling

摘要

The mechanism of soil-compacting effect by silent piling is analyzed, and based on large-scale model box test, using soft clay of typical sites in Yancheng District, taking the single pile as the study objects respectively, and studying the soil compaction effects with the process of sinking into the single pile, analyzing the variation law of the soil deformation and pore water pressure while sinking into the single pile. The results shows that the greater the radial distance, the smaller of soil compaction effect, the influence scope of soil compaction effects on the displacement and pore water pressure reaches 0.6 times and 0.5 times the pile length sinking the single pile, which is accord to the actual engineering. The results could guide the pile foundation construction on soft soil.
