Abstract
The water filling preloading method is the common ground treatment method adopted to reinforce soft tank foundation. The influence laws of load speed, soil parameters on the reinforced effect of soft tank foundation were analyzed by the three-dimension finite element numerical analysis procedure. The research shows that the fovea deformation of single tank bottom under preload is similar to the pan bottom shape; the influence of soil constrained modulus on settlement is remarkable and it also affects the settlement time curve shape; when the constrained modulus is constant, with the permeability coefficient decreasing, the surface doming phenomenon around the tank foundation increases, and the range of upheaval is related to constrained modulus; the influence of loading function on the final settlement is very small, but the influence on pore water pressure is remarkable.
