| Resumo: | Helical piles are foundations installed in the ground by means of torque to withstand of
compression, traction and lateral loads. They offer advantages such as high productivity and
installation with minimum noise and vibration. In this work, the pull-out behavior of
instrumented helical piles subjected to cyclic loading in sandy soil is evaluated. The used pile
had three bearing plates and was instrumented with electric resistance strain gauges in three
sections along the shaft. Three pull-out load tests were performed: two with quasi-static cyclic
loading and one with static loading, to verify the effects of cyclic loading. The tests with quasistatic loads were made with different values of average cyclic load and load amplitude. The
results showed a great influence of the way in which the load increments were used, due to the
densification and disturbance of the surrounding soil. The accumulated displacements tended
to stabilize after the 10th cycle, low rates of mean displacement accumulation were not obtained
and the number of cycles before failure showed to be dependent on the average load and the
cyclic amplitude. The instrumented sections allowed to observe the reduction in the residual
cyclic rigidity with the increase in depth along the shaft. The analysis of the mobilized loads in
the bearing plates along the cycles, showed that the contribution to resistance from the lower
bearing plate was responsible for most of the load capacity. It was observed that applied load
levels and interaction factors between loading stages, which appear when the minimum load of
a loading stage is lower than the maximum load of the previous stage, influenced the cyclical
behavior of the soil-pile system by increasing the system rigidity and reducing corresponding
displacements. Finally, the application of the quasi-static load cycles increased the static uplift
capacity. |
