Numerical Analysis of Bearing Behavior of Inclined Piles Under Horizontal Oblique-vertical Combined Loads
By combining horizontal oblique loads of different angles and sizes with downward loads of different sizes,the mechanical characteristics of inclined pile foundation in three-dimensional space were simulated.The bearing capacity of 15°inclined piles in silty soil foundation under the combined action of horizontal oblique load and vertical load was analyzed.The results show that with the in-crease of the loading angle of horizontal oblique load,the horizontal displacement of the top of inclined pile decreases and the horizontal ultimate bearing capacity of single pile increases.When the skew an-gle is not more than 90°,the top of the inclined pile produces positive vertical displacement,which in-creases with the vertical downward load.The vertical displacement and horizontal displacement of pile top increase,and the horizontal ultimate bearing capacity of inclined piles decreases.The opposite is true when the loading angle of horizontal oblique load is greater than 90°.The bending moment and torque of the pile are almost unaffected by the downward load.The closer the horizontal loading angle is to 90°,the greater the peak value of the negative bending moment and the positive torque.
