Abstract

In this study, the effect of the embedment ratio of the pipe was investigated using the PIV method. The difference in this study compared to the literature is that in the case of the surcharge load, the failure surfaces were determined experimentally depending on the burial depth of the pipe. In addition, the load-displacement relationship was determined by footing load. The stresses on the pipe were measured by using strain gauges placed on the pipe. The results show the ultimate bearing capacity increases with the increasing depth of the pipe from the strip footing. The results of the PIV analysis show that the failure mechanism of the soil is affected by the embedment ratio of the pipe.
