Abstract

In this paper, two lumped parameter analogues with the inclusion of constant friction damping are suggested to explain the dynamic behavior of pile supported footings during vertical as well as torsional modes of vibrations. Simple theoretical procedures have been described by which the constant frictional force and the constant frictional moment of the friction damping can be evaluated during vertical and torsional vibrations respectively. The suggested procedures into consideration the relevant physical characteristics of the interface between the pile and the soil, as also the length to diameter (L/d) ratio of the pile. Field vibratory teats have been carried out on model pile supported footings under steady state vertical and torsional excitation. The test data obtained are compared with the values predicted by the proposed theory and the agreement between the two is found to be satisfactory.

Soil-Pile Interaction Parameters in Vertical and Torsional Vibrations

St. Louis, Missouri

In this paper, two lumped parameter analogues with the inclusion of constant friction damping are suggested to explain the dynamic behavior of pile supported footings during vertical as well as torsional modes of vibrations. Simple theoretical procedures have been described by which the constant frictional force and the constant frictional moment of the friction damping can be evaluated during vertical and torsional vibrations respectively. The suggested procedures into consideration the relevant physical characteristics of the interface between the pile and the soil, as also the length to diameter (L/d) ratio of the pile. Field vibratory teats have been carried out on model pile supported footings under steady state vertical and torsional excitation. The test data obtained are compared with the values predicted by the proposed theory and the agreement between the two is found to be satisfactory.
