Horizontal Bearing Capacity of A New Bucket Foundation with Partial Inclined Wall

The traditional bucket foundation use vertical wall, which like a cup is buried upside down in seabed. A new bucket foundation with partial inclined wall has been proposed in this article. Based on limit equilibrium analysis of threedimensional stress state of foundation, the calculation method of the horizontal bearing capacity of the new bucket foundation has been deduced, which has been veri...

Study on Bearing Capacity of Prestressed Pipe Pile Foundation Under Horizontal Load

Received: June 12, 2017 Revised: October 24, 2017 Accepted: November 03, 2017 Abstract: Background and Objective: Prestressed high strength concrete pipe pile (PHC) shows brittle fracture when subjected to more than its own bearing capacity. Therefore, the non-prestressed steel bar is added to the PHC pipe pile, that is, the mixed reinforced pipe pile (PRC). The mechanical behavior of PRC group...

Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Eccentrically Loaded Strip Foundation on Sand Reinforced with Geogrids

This paper reports the results of model loading tests performed on an eccentrically loaded strip foundation supported by multi-layered geogrid-reinforced sand. Only one type of geogrid and sand at one relative density of compaction were considered. Based on the present laboratory test results, an empirical relationship for the reduction factor has been developed. This relationship can be used t...
