Pushover Analysis of Pile-supported Bridge Piers

摘要

According to Japan Railway seismic design code, truss finite element model is established considering the pile components and foundation nonlinear finite element model in this paper, an analysis on the ultimate horizontal bearing capacity of bridge pile foundation of passenger dedicated line is made and the results of m-method calculation are compared. The analysis results show that: when horizontal force at the top of pier is larger, with the pile side soil horizontal and vertical force continuously into the plastic, the calculation results differ greatly with two seismic specification; the pier top level force-displacement skeleton curve considered pile-soil interaction is available in trilinear description, the analysis results can provide a theoretical basis for the seismic analysis of the pile foundation under rare earthquake.
