Full-Scale Physical Modeling Of The System "Granular Media—Steel Sheet Piling"
Abstract
This paper considers the problem of determination of real parameters of the cross-sectional values of sheet piling walls made of U-profile piles (moment of inertia and section modulus) and their drivability regarding piles interaction with granular media (for example, sandy soil). Among main factors which influence on this one can mention soil friction in the interlocks and the transmission of longitudinal shear forces in the interlocks of the sheet piles. In reality granular media-interlock interaction depends mainly on installation method and properties of the granular media. Study of dependencies between applied forces and friction in the interlocks by full-scale physical modeling during press-in regarding pile-pile interaction and granular media properties was aiming to refine calculation model as well as to provide reliable numerical modeling and design of the considered system.
