摘要

The distribution of soil pressure in landslides above anti-slide piles is a key factor in their design. The paper describes the evolution of stresses near soil-piles by testing a physical scale model during progressive loading. Displacement monitoring data on the surface of the landslide during loading discloses four main evolutionary stages: the initial stage of deformation, the uniform deformation stage, the accelerating deformation stage, and the damage stage. During initial deformation, the vertical distribution of soil pressure above anti-slide piles is sigmoidal, with the highest pressures occurring in the middle and upper parts of the slide mass. Next, during the uniform deformation stage, the soil pressure begins to assume a parabolic shape in a vertical profile, and this shape is fully realized during subsequent accelerating deformation. Finally, during the damage stage, the soil pressure relaxes to low values near the center of the slide mass, effectively inverting the parabola. Thus, the distribution of soil pressure above anti-slide piles changes in a complex manner during deformation, and these effects must be accommodated in the analysis and design of anti-slide piles.
