Abstract
ABSTRACT The large-diameter pile foundation is with an intermediate depth, widely used in engineering fields such as ports, breakwaters and rapid construction of artificial islands as a supporting structure to resist lateral loads. However, there is limited research on the bearing performance of such large-diameter, intermediate-depth pile foundations. In this paper, the finite element method is used to investigate the bearing capacity of the large-diameter pile foundation with different embedment ratios in homogeneous soil and normally consolidated soil and the prediction formulas for uniaxial and combined bearing capacity are developed. This study also sets up three different skirt wall–soil interface properties to discuss their influence on the bearing performance of the large-diameter pile foundation. The research is systematic, and relevant analysis can provide practical suggestions for engineering design.
