Deformation Control Method of the Antislide Pile under Trapezoidal Load in the Zhangjiawan Landslide

Abstract EN

Antislide piles are set in the Zhangjiawan landslide area, where the general features of the bedrock below the slip surface include upper weak and lower hard strata.

Based on a site investigation, the horizontal displacement of the antislide pile head is 14.8 cm, which is not conducive to the stability of the landslide.

In the study, a displacement calculation method for the pile under trapezoidal load is proposed for a colluvial landslide controlling.

Furthermore, factors affecting the deformation and internal forces of the pile were also studied.

The results indicated that (1) when the embedded length of an antislide pile increases, the horizontal displacement on the pile and maximum absolute shear force decrease, while the bending moment of the pile exhibits opposite trends; (2) the relationship between maximum shear force and maximum bending moment is linear with increasing driving force of landslide; and (3) increase in the ratio of the driving force between the pile head and slip surface (q0/q1) steadily increases the horizontal displacement of the pile.

The relationship between the distribution of the driving force (q0/q1) and the reasonable embedded length of a pile is a quadratic function, which can be used to determine the reasonable embedded length of a pile under the action of rectangular or triangular loads.

It is very useful to use the above method to guide the design of antislide piles in similar areas.
