THE DIFFERENCE IN THE OPERATION OF DRILLED AND DRIVEN PILES IN THE COMPOSITION OF A TAPE PILE FOUNDATION

A comparative analysis of the results of the mathematical modeling of the strip pile foundation from driven and bored piles with one-row and two-row arrangement of piles with different longitudinal steps and different lengths in different types of soil was performed. It was established that the degree of implementation of the load-bearing capacity of piles and grids as part of a strip pile foundation depends not only on the relative length and pitch of the piles, but also on the method of their arrangement. Taking into account the actual operation of piles and grids as part of the pile foundation allows to increase the load-bearing capacity of the pile foundation as a whole and, accordingly, to save material and labor resources during construction work. Based on the results of the study, the difference in the operation of drilled and driven piles in the strip pile foundation was established. The load-bearing capacity of a low grid as part of a strip pile foundation on bored piles is 1.5-2 times greater than in pile foundations made of driven piles. The degree of implementation of the load-bearing capacity of the pile as part of the pile foundation is significantly greater for foundations made of drilled piles compared to foundations made of driven piles. For foundations made of driven piles, at step 3d - 6d, the piles in the strip do not fully realize their load-bearing capacity. Drill pile groups increase their load-bearing capacity by working in a group, even with a minimum pitch. Since pile foundations from drilled piles significantly increase their bearing capacity due to the joint work of their elements under load in comparison with pile foundations from driven piles, taking into account this joint work, pile foundations from drilled piles become competitive with similar foundations from driven piles.
