Calculation and analysis of bearing capacity reliability index of post-grouting pile

Abstract

The bearing capacity of bored piles is significantly improved and the dispersion of bearing capacity is reduced obviously by employing the method of grouting. However, there is still a lack of systematic research on the calculation and analysis of the reliability index of post-grouting pile. In this paper, the static load test data of 152 non-grouted bored piles and 113 post-grouted bored piles are collected. The influence of factors such as safety factor K , types of load effect combination, and the pile diameter are taken into account. Then, the approximate probability method based on the first-order second-moment method (JC method) and Monte Carlo method is employed to analyze the reliability indexes of post-grouted bored piles and non-grouted ones.
