摘要

The belled-out section of under-reamed piles is supposed as spring, and the non-dimension solutions of elastic displacement are deduced according to the equilibrium differential equation of under-reamed piles. The ideal elastic-plastic load-transfer functions for pile shaft are adopted to study the nonlinear deformation of the under-reamed tension piles. The lateral soil strength is regarded as power function, which varies with the depth. On this basis, a series of the closed-form elastic-plastic solutions of displacement and axial load at a certain depth from the ground surface of under-reamed tension pile are deduced. Comparing with the actual responses of the model experiment and in-situ pile test, this proposed method can give reasonable results. The theory solutions not only avoids complex calculation but also predicts the displacement of under-reamed tension piles reasonablely. It can be applied to the actual projects.
