Liquefaction countermeasure using steel sheet pile with drain capability
Steel piles with drain capability have been developed as a countermeasure for liquefaction of sand layers. These steel piles have steel channels with a number of holes to drain pore water from the sand layer, and thus are capable of reducing the excess pore water pressure generated by earthquakes. This paper reports on applicability of the sheet pile with drain capability to the liquefaction countermeasures for buried structures and embankments, investigated through model tests using a shaking table. The main results are as follows: 1. Enclosing the buried structure with the sheet piles with drain capability was effective in preventing uplift displacement due to liquefaction. This resulted from preventing the loss of soil strength around the sheet pile walls. 2. Enclosing the embankment with the sheet piles with drain capability was effective in protecting it from settlement due to liquefaction. The effect of this method is to utilize the sheet pile walls and the soil strength around it to prevent the soil underlying the embankment from spreading out.
