A stepped variable cross-section cast-in-place pile and an optimization design method thereof
By designing stepped variable cross-section cast-in-place piles, the problems of structural redundancy and low material utilization efficiency of large-diameter cast-in-place piles with uniform cross-section under composite loads are solved. This achieves stress balance in the pile-soil system and efficient material utilization, making it suitable for the foundation construction of high-voltage transmission lines.

AI Technical Summary
Existing large-diameter cast-in-place pile foundations with uniform cross-sections suffer from problems such as mismatch between cross-sectional resistance and internal force response, low material utilization efficiency, and high design redundancy under combined loads, making it difficult to achieve reasonable distribution of structural forces and effective activation of the potential of the foundation soil.
The stepped variable cross-section cast-in-place pile design is adopted. By combining the stress-enhancing section and the economic transition section, and using three-dimensional nonlinear numerical simulation and orthogonal experimental optimization design, the pile section resistance moment and external load effect are matched, structural redundancy is reduced, and the resistance of deep soil is stimulated.
It achieves stress balance in the pile-soil system, reduces material usage and engineering costs, improves material utilization efficiency, meets green building goals, and is suitable for high-voltage transmission line foundation construction in complex terrain.
