  • Torsional Behavior of Steel-Concrete-Steel Sandwich Beams with Welded Stirrups as Shear Connectors

    Civil Engineering Journal Iran, 2023
    The structural performance of a steel-concrete-steel sandwich beam (SCSSB) with welded stirrups to the steel skin plates as shear connections exposed to a pure torsion load was studied in this paper. Eight SCSSB specimens were fabricated and tested under pure torsion. The effects of the compressive strength of the concrete core, 26 and 35 MPa, the thickness of the top and bottom steel skin plates, 2 and 4 mm, and the degree of shear interaction, which represents the number of beam stirrups, between the steel skin plates and the concrete core are 75, 100, and 125%. The experiment beams revealed a similar mode of failure for all SCSSB specimens regarding all considered variables, which started with inclined cracks along the specimens’ side faces and ended with local separation between one of the steel skin plates (top or bottom) and the concrete core. In addition, the experiment results showed an increase in the torsional strength with the increase in the shear connection ratio and the thickness of the steel skin plate, as well as with the increase in the strength of the concrete core. However, it was observed that the torsional ductility of the tested beams is proportional directly to the steel skin plate thickness and degree of interaction and inversely with the concrete compressive strength. The results showed that the use of steel skin plates with welded stirrups as a shear connection could reduce the negative effect of increasing the compressive strength of the concrete core on the torsional ductility of SCSSB.

  • Experimental investigation of batter pile groups behaviour subjected to lateral soil movement in sand

    International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 2020
    A series of laboratory model tests on batter pile groups embedded in the sand was carried out in a specially designed testing box. The lateral responses were investigated for 1 × 2 capped batter pile groups when subjected to lateral soil movements (passive loading) with different configurations; Vertical-Vertical (VVL), Batter-Vertical (BVL), Vertical-Batter (VBL), and Both- Batter (BBL). The effect of pile group arrangement and batter angle on the bending moment, shear force, soil reaction, pile rotation and deflection behaviour of the passive batter pile groups were studied. It is observed that the behaviour of the individual piles in a group was significantly affected by the batter angle and the pile group arrangement. It is also shown that under passive loading, batter pile groups with (BBL) configuration of (−10°, +10°) offered more resistance to the lateral soil movement compared to other pile group arrangements, while (VVL) configuration offered the least resistance.
  • Response of passively loaded pile groups – an experimental study

    Preventing or reducing the damage impact of lateral soil movements on piled foundations is highly dependent on understanding the behavior of passive piles. For this reason, a detailed experimental study is carried out, aimed to examine the influence of soil density, the depth of moving layer and pile spacing on the behavior of a 2x2 free-standing pile group subjected to a uniform profile of lateral soil movement. Results from 8 model tests comprise bending moment, shear force, soil reaction and deformations measured along the pile shaft using strain gauges and others probing tools were performed. It is found that soil density and the depth of moving layer have an opposite impact regarding the ultimate response of piles. A pile group embedded in dense sand requires less soil displacement to reach the ultimate soil reaction compared to those embedded in medium and loose sands. On the other hand, the larger the moving depth, the larger amount of lateral soil movement needs to develop the pile group its ultimate deformations. Furthermore, the group factor and the effect of pile spacing were highly related to the soil-structure interaction resulted from the transferring process of forces between pile rows with the existing of the rigid pile cap.
