Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of marine and deep-water engineering technology, and relates to a method for calculating the vertical bearing capacity of pile-anchor foundations, specifically a method for calculating the vertical bearing capacity of pile-anchor foundations considering the location of the loading anchor point. Background Technology
[0002] Pile-anchor foundations transfer loads through the synergistic effect of pile embedding into the ocean and deep-water bed, and the oblique tension of the anchor chain. As the core anchoring structure of a floating platform, its load-bearing capacity directly affects the stability and safety of the platform. Therefore, the analysis and research of the vertical bearing capacity of pile-anchor foundations under anchor tension loads is crucial. However, traditional studies on pull-out bearing capacity often focus on the pure axial tension case at the pile top. In reality, the anchor chain of a pile-anchor foundation does not necessarily act at the pile top; more often, it acts at a point along the pile shaft. Existing methods for calculating the vertical bearing capacity of pile-anchor foundations cannot predetermine the load distribution between the upper and lower pile sections at the anchor point, and cannot reflect the segmented axial force distribution characteristics of the pile shaft caused by anchor tension loads.

[0095] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant advantages:
[0096] The study considered the distribution of the vertical component of the anchor load at the anchor point and the different stress states of the upper and lower pile segments. It can accurately reflect the changes in the axial force distribution, side friction, and bearing capacity of the pile body with the anchor point position and the anchor load angle. It also obtained the load distribution coefficients at the pile end of the upper pile segment and the pile top of the lower pile segment at the loading point interface when the total uplift load is applied. This is the first time that the complete relationship between the load distribution coefficient at the loading point and the total uplift load has been obtained.
[0097] This invention is applicable to the vertical bearing capacity analysis of pile-anchor foundations under complex working conditions such as different anchor point depths and oblique angles, and provides more comprehensive theoretical support for the design of pile-anchor foundations for floating platforms such as floating photovoltaic, floating wind power, and floating bridges.

Detailed Implementation
[0105] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0106] like Figure 2 As shown, when the anchor load is applied at any point on the pile body other than the pile top and pile end, the vertical component of the anchor load acts on the pile body. For the pile section above the anchor point, it acts as an upward force, while for the pile section below the anchor point, it acts as an upward pull force. Under the upward force, the upper pile section experiences axial pressure. As the upward displacement increases, the negative skin friction gradually develops, and the axial force at the pile top decreases to zero. Under the upward pull force, the lower pile section experiences axial tension. Similarly, as the upward displacement increases, the negative skin friction gradually develops, and the axial force at the pile end decreases to zero.
[0107] The upper and lower pile segments satisfy the force equilibrium and displacement compatibility conditions at the anchor points. The differential governing equations for the pile body at this point are as follows:
[0108]
[0109] Where z is the pile depth, w(z) is the tensile deformation of the pile, and U p Let E be the circumference of the pile, τ(z) be the side friction at depth z of the pile, and E be the side friction at depth z of the pile. p Let A be the elastic modulus of the pile. p Let be the cross-sectional area of the pile. Since linear shear action at the pile-anchor-soil interface is almost nonexistent in reality, plastic shear behavior is always present. Therefore, to obtain the solution for the pull-out bearing capacity of the pile-anchor foundation considering the influence of the anchor loading position, an iterative solution using the "bisection method" is employed.
[0110] This embodiment compares the calculation method with the standard method that does not consider the influence of various partial factors or safety factors. For ease of verification, the calculation formula of the "Code for Design of Building Pile Foundations" (JGJ94-2008) is used as the prototype, as follows:
[0111] Tuk =∑λ i q sik u i l i (2)
[0112] Among them, T uk λ represents the standard value of the ultimate vertical uplift bearing capacity of a single pile. i Let q be the pull-out coefficient of the i-th soil layer. sik Let u be the standard value of the ultimate lateral resistance of the i-th layer of soil along the pile. i Let l be the perimeter of the cross-section of the i-th soil pile. i Let be the length of the pile body corresponding to the i-th soil layer.
[0113] When the uplift load is located at a certain depth in the pile body, the upper pile is subjected to the upward force and the lower pile is subjected to the upward force, and the side friction of both piles is negative. For the lower pile subjected to the upward force, the reduction of the pile side friction can be directly referred to the pull-out coefficient λ in formula (2); however, for the upper pile subjected to the upward force, the pile side friction is essentially still negative, which is still different from the positive side friction given under the traditional compression pile state, and the influence of the reduction effect still needs to be considered. Because the state of the upper pile under the upward force is consistent with the stress state of the upper pile under the "self-balancing method", the pile side friction under the upward force can be reduced by referring to the conversion coefficient β in the "self-balancing method". Therefore, the ultimate tensile bearing capacity of the pile foundation is obtained by superimposing the side friction of each pile after considering the reduction. The theoretical calculation formula is as follows:
[0114] T uk =∑λ i q sik u i l i +∑β j q sjk u j l j (3)
[0115] Among them, T uk λ represents the standard value of the ultimate vertical uplift bearing capacity of the lower pile segment. i Let q be the pull-out coefficient of the i-th soil layer in the lower pile segment. sik u is the standard value of the ultimate lateral resistance of the i-th soil layer on the side of the lower pile segment. i Let l be the perimeter of the cross-section of the i-th layer of soil pile in the lower section. i β represents the length of the pile body corresponding to the i-th soil layer in the lower segment of the pile; j q is the reduction factor for the upward force of the j-th layer of soil in the upper section of the pile. sjk u is the standard value of the ultimate lateral resistance of the j-th soil layer on the side of the upper pile. j Let l be the perimeter of the cross-section of the j-th layer of soil pile in the upper section. jThis represents the length of the pile body corresponding to the j-th soil layer of the upper section of the pile.
[0116] This embodiment uses the parameters shown in Table 1 for calculation. The total pile length L = 25m, the pile diameter d = 2m, and the loading point depth is 5m (0.2L). The τ-s curve model uses a hyperbola model.
[0117]
[0118] Where τ is the side frictional resistance of the pile, s is the settlement of the pile, and τ u Let k be the ultimate frictional resistance, and k be the initial stiffness of the hyperbolic model. To avoid the initial stiffness k being too large, k is generally taken as 4τ. u / s u s u The ultimate displacement of the relative sliding displacement at the pile-soil interface is s. In this case, s is taken as... u =2mm for initial stiffness k calculation.

[0204] When Δ m >0 and Δ min ×Δ m When η < 0, it means that the assumed load distribution factor η is too large, and it also indicates that a reasonable value of η falls within the range of η. min ~η m Between; at this time, take η max =η m η min Remain unchanged and return to step S7.

[0206] In situations where the axial bearing stiffness of the upper and lower anchor piles is unknown and the specific load distribution value cannot be directly determined, this invention proposes a "bisection method" to iteratively solve the distribution coefficient to obtain the specific uplift force and uplift force, and to solve the overall bearing performance of the pile and anchor under the total vertical load.
[0207] like Figure 5 The figure shows the pull-out bearing capacity versus pull-out displacement curve when the pull-out loading point is located at a pile depth of 5m. From the figure, it can be seen that the pull-out ultimate bearing capacity calculated according to formula (3) is 1.07 × 10⁻⁶. 4 kN is the limit value of the pull-out bearing capacity curve obtained by the multiple "bisection method" iterative solution of the present invention, which proves the correctness of the numerical iterative solution method proposed in the present invention.
[0208] like Figure 6 The figure shows the load distribution coefficients at the top of the upper pile segment and the top of the lower pile segment at the interface of the loading point under total uplift load. This is one of the main innovations of this invention, obtaining for the first time the complete relationship between the load distribution coefficients at the loading point and the total uplift load. From Figure 6 As can be seen from the data, as the total uplift load increases, the uplift load distribution coefficient at the top of the upper pile gradually increases, which means that the uplift force also gradually increases. Meanwhile, the uplift load distribution coefficient at the top of the lower pile gradually decreases, which means that the uplift force also gradually decreases.
[0209] exist Figure 6 Based on this, when the total uplift load is selected as 5000kN, the load distribution factor for the upper pile section is 0.346, and the received uplift load is 1729.5kN; the load distribution factor for the lower pile section is 0.654, and the received uplift load is 3270.5kN. Therefore, the distribution of axial force and side friction of the pile body under a total uplift load of 5000kN is as follows: Figure 7 As shown.
[0210] from Figure 7 It is clearly visible that because the loading point is approximately 5m deep, which is 0.2 times the pile length, the axial stiffness of the upper pile is relatively weak, resulting in a lower load distribution. Simultaneously, the upper pile's bearing capacity is realized more quickly. In contrast, the lower pile still has considerable room to reach its full potential, indicating an asynchronous development of the bearing capacity of the upper and lower piles. The upper pile bears axial pressure under the upward force, therefore... Figure 7 (a) shows a negative value, while the lower section of the pile is under the action of the upward pull force and is in the state of axial tension of the pile body, so the axial force is represented by a positive value; Figure 7 (b) The negative skin friction values are because the skin friction around the entire tension pile is in a negative state. It should be clarified that after the upper section of the pile enters the ultimate limit state, it does not cease to function, but continues to work in synergy with the lower section of the pile in the ultimate bearing state, continuously improving the overall tension resistance of the complete tension pile.
[0211] In summary, this invention divides the pile anchor into upper and lower sections according to the anchor point location. The upper section is subjected to upward force (axial pressure), while the lower section is subjected to upward force (axial tension). By assuming vertical load and load distribution coefficient, and combining the τ-s curve model to calculate the pile side friction, the "bisection method" is used to iteratively solve the load distribution coefficient to satisfy the force balance and displacement coordination conditions. Finally, the load distribution coefficient, the bearing capacity and deformation values of the upper and lower pile sections are obtained. This invention can accurately reflect the changes in pile axial force distribution, side friction, and bearing capacity with anchor point location and load angle. For the first time, the relationship between the load distribution coefficient at the loading point and the total upward load is established. It is applicable to complex working conditions such as different anchor point depths and inclination angles, and provides more comprehensive theoretical support for the design of pile anchor foundations for deep-sea floating platforms.
