Abstract

Abstract: The pile-cap connection part which transfers foundation loads through pile body is critical element regarding flexural and shea r force because the change of area, stress, and stiffness occurs in the this region suddenly. The purpose of this study is to investigate the s tructural behavior of pile-cap connection dependent on fabrication methods using conventional PHC pile and composite PHC pile. A series of test under cyclic lateral load was performed and the connection behavior was discussed. From the test results, it was found that the initial rotational stiffness of pile-cap connection was affected by the length of pile-head inserted in footing and the location of longitudinal reinforcing bars. The types of pile an d location of longitudinal reinforcing bars governed the behavior of pile-cap connection regarding load-carrying capacity, ductility, and energy dissipati on.Keywords: Pile-cap connection, Cyclic lateral load, PHC pile, Composite PHC pile 1 정회원, 충남대학교 건설방재연구소 박사후 연구원
