| Abstract: | An Incompletely End Supported Pile (IESP) is a pile in a soft soil layer underlain by a hard soil layer that does not reach the bottom hard layer in practice. This study estimates the end bearing capacity of IESP by using an inhouse Rigid Plastic FEM code (RPFEM), considering shear strength non-linearity of soil against confining pressure, and soil-foundation interaction. The effect of the distance between the pile tip and the bottom hard soil layer (d/B) on the end-bearing capacity of IESP was mainly investigated for three types of soil: cohesive soils, cohesionless soils and intermediate soils. Also, theratio (r) of the end bearing capacity of the pile when it reaches the bottom hard layer to that of the pile when the bottom layer has no influence was was considered. By considering the shear strength non-linearity, the end bearing capacity was accurately estimated. The estimations were consistent with previous analytical, experimental and numerical solutions. It is found that the end bearing capacity inversely decreases with the distance d/B and becomes constant around d/B = 3. Based on the results, a formula for estimating the end bearing capacity of IESP is proposed. Comparisons with methods in existing literature confirmed the reliability of the proposed equation. |
