In order to study the deformation of bored pile, it is necessary to monitor the strain of the pile. The distributed optical fiber sensing technology realizes the integration of sensing and transmission, which is incomparable with traditional point monitoring method. In this paper, the Brillouin optical time domain reflectometer (BOTDR) distributed optical fiber sensing technology is used to monitor the deformation of the bored pile. The raw data monitored by BOTDR is processed by the wavelet basis function, that can perform noise removal processing. Three different methods of noise removal are chosen. Through the processing, the db5 wavelet is used to decompose the deformation data of bored pile monitored by BOTDR into two layers. The decomposed high-frequency signal is denoised by the Stein-based unbiased risk threshold, rigrsure. The decomposed data is smoothed by the translational mean method, and the final data after denoising and smoothing processing is real and reliable. The results of this study will provide data support for the deformation characteristics of bored pile, and also show the advantages of distributed optical fiber sensing technology.
As a newly developed pile foundation, the snowflake shaped steel sheet pile is composed of three Y-shaped sections with an included angle of 120° and has a large specific surface area, which can give full play to the side friction of pile and improve the bearing capacity of single pile. At the same time, the snowflake shaped steel sheet pile has a high strength, relatively few materials, and it has good prospects with engineering applications. In order to accurately grasp the mechanical characteristics of the snowflake shaped steel sheet pile, this paper carried out the model test of snowflake shaped steel sheet pile based on OFDR (optical frequency domain reflector) distributed optical fiber sensor technology. The results show that: (1) OFDR distributed optical fiber sensing technology can effectively monitor the strain of snowflake steel sheet pile; (2) under the vertical load, the strain of snowflake steel sheet pile decreases along the length of the pile; (3) the strain of the same section of snowflake steel sheet pile is different at different positions, the strain at the junction between web and web is basically the same as the junction between web and flange, and the strain of the pile shaft on the flange edge is larger.
