On-Site In-Suit Test Research of Horizontal Bearing Capacity on Inclined Steel Pipe Piles

Abstract

The in-situ tests of horizontal bearing capacity on inclined steel pipe piles were conducted in the sea near Shanghai. Based on the field experiment with the lateral unidirectional and single cycle loading test method, this document presents the horizontal displacement and bearing capacity on the inclined steel pipe piles with negative and positive inclination angles. And the horizontal bearing capacity of the steel pipe pile with positive inclination angle is larger than the one with negative inclination angle. And the tests results can be provided for similar engineering reference.
