Experimental Study on Shear Strength Parameters of Round Gravel Soils in Plateau Alluvial-Lacustrine Deposits and Its Application
The shear strength parameters of conglomerate soils are crucial to the stability analysis of foundation support when excavating and supporting ultra-deep foundation pits in the highland alluvial lacustrine layer. The difference in water content of conglomerate soils in different regions will directly affect the values of shear strength parameters. At the same time, more research on the shear strength of conglomerate soils under different water contents is required. In this study, a series of large-scale direct shear tests were carried out on the round gravel soil in the plateau alluvial-lacustrine deposit, and the round gravel soil’s shear strength curves under natural and saturated conditions and water content were obtained. The influence of different water content on the shear strength characteristics of the round gravel soil was discussed, and the shear strength parameters of the round gravel soil with different water content were used in the numerical simulation of ultra-deep foundation pit excavation and support. The stress and deformation laws of the foundation pit support were analyzed. The results show that the peak strength of the round gravel soil in the natural water content state appears between 30% and 45% of the shear displacement, while the peak strength in the saturated water content state appears around 45–55% of the shear displacement. The shear strength tends to be stable or slightly weakened with the increase of the shear displacement. The angle of internal friction and cohesion of round gravel soil in the natural water content state is greater than those in the saturated water content state. The simulation of the foundation excavation support shows that the shear strength parameter of the round gravel soil influences the force deformation of the support structure. The higher the water content of the round gravel soil, the more the shear strength parameter affects the soil displacement. The research results can provide some reference for optimizing project design parameters.
