Bearing capacity of single stone column in clay using finite element limit analysis
Stone columns are used as an efficient ground improvement technique, which could increase the bearing capacity of native soft soil, reduce settlement, increase rate of consolidation and mitigate liquefaction potential. In this study, the finite element limit analysis (FELA) with the adaptive mesh, including both upper bound and lower bound approaches, was applied for prediction of ultimate bearing capacity of single stone column. It was observed that a critical slenderness ratio exists in which the failure mechanism changes from punching to bulging. An equation was derived for prediction of the critical slenderness ratio as a function of cohesion of the native clayey soil and friction angle of the stone column. A two-criteria equation is also presented to predict the ultimate bearing capacity of single stone column under both punching and bulging mechanisms. Moreover, the effect of footing roughness on the ultimate bearing capacity of the stone column was investigated. It was observed that the influence of footing roughness is more significant for bulging-type failure. The results of this study are also compared with some of the previously published analyses in the literature.
