This paper proposed a method for analysis of a drilled pile under vertical load at the crest of rock slope. Based on wedge theory, a modified model of normal stiffness of socket wall affected by the slope is obtained. Analyze the shear behaviors of the pile-rock interface, an analytical solution of load transfer of pile at the crest of rock slope is obtained. To evaluate the accuracy of the new method, this method is compared with the results of finite difference analysis. Finally, the method is used to analyze the effect of slope, pile, and rock properties on the unit side resistance and axial force.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
