Abstract

The regular pattern of the lateral friction transmission is one of the most critical influences on the ultimate uplift bearing capacity. The pile foundation in the incline under the pulling force has a wide variety of characteristics which is different with the normal pile. Numerical simulation is done by the use of FLAC3D in this paper. The regular pattern of the lateral friction transmission of the pile in the incline under the pulling force is studied. And the influence factors on the lateral friction transmission such as the slope gradient, the length and location of piles are discussed. The results show that the incline has a great influence on the lateral friction transmission. The lateral friction which is away from the incline-side is about 30% to 50% bigger than the incline-side. The slope gradient and the location of piles all have a great influence on the lateral friction transmission.
