Vertical Bearing Capacity

The vertical bearing capacity of a special pile group of platform in an offshore gas field has been studied. Large diameter d (2.134 m), deep penetration l (96 m), small spacing sa (3.507 m), and only one row piles are the usual characteristics of the pile group foundation in offshore engineering. According to the requirements of the related design code, the super pile group effect has to be considered. However, with the usual design code, when sa/d, the ratio of spacing to diameter, is less than 2.0, there is no way to consider the pile group effect. In this paper, considering the occlusion effect of soil plug of pipe pile, several methods have been introduced to study the super pile group effect of the vertical bearing capacity. These methods include linear elastic theory method, the method recommended by the Code of Pile Foundation in Port Engineering (JTJ254-98), and the method with virtue of the existing pile group model test results. Meanwhile, the plugged and unplugged conditions have been considered, respectively. Through the analysis, the factors of safety in extreme and normal operation states are obtained, and the results satisfy the design specifications.

Pile Group Effect

In the present study, various interaction effects and load-carrying behavior of piled rafts embedded in clay were investigated. For this purpose, a series of centrifuge load tests were conducted using different types of model foundations, including single pile, group piles, piled raft, and unpiled raft. Different clay conditions were considered to prepare for centrifuge specimens. It was found that the pile group effect in clays is significant within initial loading range, showing lower load-carrying capacity. As settlement increases, the pile group effect becomes less pronounced. For both soft and stiff conditions, the values of the raft-to-pile (R-P) interaction factor varied initially, which became converged to some values around unity with increasing settlement. Similar tendency was observed for the pile-to-raft (P-R) interaction factor. The load responses of different pile components within the piled raft were not significantly different for the soft condition. For the stiff condition, the corner and inner piles showed the highest and lowest load-carrying capacities, respectively, due to piled-raft interaction effects. Correlations to cone resistance were analyzed and presented for the base and shaft resistances of piles for piled rafts.
