Skin friction resistance of expansion steel pipe piles in sandy soils
Abstract This study investigates the use of expansion steel pipe piles for the reinforcement of relatively loose (sandy) soil under small building foundations. The expansion steel pipe piles used in this study are frequently used as rock bolts in tunnel excavation in Europe. The diameter of these pipes expands from 36 to 54 mm through the application of high‐pressure water. In this study, field load tests confirm the reinforcement effect of expansion steel pipe piles. The results can be summarized as follows: (a) The region of the surrounding soil compressed by the expansion of the piles is approximately 8 times (450 mm) the pipe diameter, as measured from the pile center. (b) The maximum friction resistance of the expansion steel pipe piles is approximately 3 times greater than that of conventional steel pipes with the same diameter. (c) The finite cavity expansion theory was used to estimate the maximum friction resistance, and the analytical results correlate strongly with the field test results.
