“…For the reason of high bearing capacity,low cost,high quality piling,et.al.pipe pile has been wildly applied in soft ground engineering.However,the lateral settlement for load on the ground,tunnel excavation and piling,the pile bears lateral positive load which has been entitled positive pile by De Beer [1].There are many analysis method for passive pile-soil interaction,such as experience method,displacement method and soil pressure method [2,3].The bearing characteristic of pile foundation for lateral displacement of soil had been studied by Franx [4].By model test, large passive soil pressure which leads to unstability of pile has been founded by Franx. Soil arching effect has been founded and validated by K.Terzaghi [5].Moreover,Simplified calculation model for bearing capacity of passive pile has been developed by Yan Reng-jue and Li Zhong-cheng [6] 。 In this paper, to reveale relationship of lateral displacement of soil and vertical bearing capacity of pile,a model test had been conducted by changing lateral displacement of soil and load position.…”
