Numerical Analysis of Pile-Supported Earth Platforms with Non-Uniform Piles
Pile-supported earth platforms provide an economic and effective solution for embankments constructed on soft soils, especially when rapid construction or strict control over deformation of the embankments is required. A system with a piled foundation of equal lengths is referred to as the conventional pile-supported earth platform while the system with non-uniform piles having dissimilar lengths is referred to as the composite pile-supported earth platform. This paper focuses on the numerical investigations of performance and the mechanism of this new type of pile-supported earth platform; particularly the influences of the height of the embankment fill, the capping ratio as well as the length of long and short piles on the settlements, stress concentration, and the efficacy are addressed. Numerical results suggest that the new pile-supported earth platform offer economical design compared to the traditional one and meet the requirement for the bearing capability and settlement.
