Seismic Resistance of Batter Pile Foundations in Peaty Soft Ground
Foundations in soft ground which support structures hold the potential for excessive deformation caused by a large-scale earthquake. Such foundations need to be designed in order to meet sufficient seismic resistance and avoid excessive deformation against a large-scale earthquake. One method to achieve this objective is the use of batter pile foundations, which have slanted piles to improve the maximum bearing capacity and permit the reduction of construction costs as compared to those for vertical pile foundations. Batter pile foundations has been regarded as a rational foundation in terms of lateral resistance and recently tended to be reapplied in Japan in particular, because various piling methods (such as rotary penetration pile application) have been developed. However, seismic behavior of batter pile foundations in peaty soft ground has not yet been clarified. In this study, dynamic centrifugal model tests were conducted for various pile specifications to elucidate the seismic behavior of batter pile foundations in peaty soft ground.
