水平力を受ける鉄筋コンクリート群杭の終局挙動に関する遠心模型実験

Abstract

Pile group subjected to a large lateral deformation was carried out by centrifugal model tests to investigate its response of a reinforced mortar pile (equivalent to a cast-in-place concrete pile) at ultimate strength. In order to observe the behavior of both the pile and soil, a semi-round pile was also used and one of the sides of the test chamber was made of glass. The lateral load-lateral displacement curves, strains acting on the surface of piles, cracks condition, the deformation pattern and the shape of the wedges at surrounding ground, and the failure mechanism of pile group were discussed experimentally.
