Abstract:Spatial variability of soil parameter distribution is crucial to calculating the pile foundation failure probability. Traditional reliability design methods describe the dispersion degree of soil parameters with their point variance without considering the influence of correlation distance. In this paper, static cone penetration test data of a project site are used, and random field theory is introduced to describe the average spatial characteristics of soil parameters. Then, the method of spatial average is u… Show more
