Abstract

The micropile is small diameter pile foundation of which diameter is below 300 mm. This system has been applied to reinforce the foundation structure. In the present study, the effects of embedded conditions of group micropiles were investigated from a series of uplift load tests. For the study, uplift load tests were performed using group micropiles in various pile spacing and installation angle. The increase of uplift resistance and the reduction of uplift displacement were investigated in the tests. As the result, the resistances were principally changed by embedded pile angle, the resistance increase were 33%, 59% and 5% for $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ of embedded pile angle. The uplift displacement reduction increases with lower pile spacing condition and the reduction ratios of uplift displacements in the same spacing condition were 50%, 53%, -45% for $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ of embedded pile angle.

마이크로파일은 직경 300mm 이하의 소규모 말뚝기초형식으로, 기초구조물의 보강을 위해 널리 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일련의 인발재하시험을 통하여 그룹 마이크로파일의 설치조건에 대한 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구를 위하여, 다양한 설치간격과 설치각도로 설치된 그룹 마이크로파일을 이용한 인발재하시험을 수행하였으며, 실험결과를 통해 인발지지력 증가특성과 인발변위 감소특성을 조사하였다. 인발저항력은 주로 마이크로파일의 설치각도에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 인발저항력의 증가는 설치각도 15도, 30도, 45도에서 각각 33%, 59%, 5%가 증가되는 것으로 나타났다. 설치간격에 따른 인발변위의 감소량은 더 좁은 설치간격조건에서 크게 나타났으며, 동일한 설치간격조건에서의 설치각도에 따른 인발변위 저감율은 설치각도 15도, 30도, 45도에서 각각 50%, 53%, -45%가 되는 것으로 나타났다.
