The eefect of changing parameters on soil settlement behavior in single pile foundation systems
Main Article Content
Abstract
In cases where the soil properties are unfavorable depending on the building load, piles are added to the foundation system and the impacting structural load is transmitted to the deeper layers, and the load is safely carried by the soil. These foundation systems are called pile foundations. Considering the cost-related economic conditions, the difficulty of construction, correct sizing, and ensuring safety, the importance of the relevant foundation systems increases. For this reason, necessary studies should be carried out and the effect of size should be examined in different ways and methods. in this study, the amount of soil settlement that occurred in soil was examined and graphically analyzed by changing the pile length, soil groundwater level (GWL), and the amount of impacting load over the problem defined in a single pile dimensioned foundation system. Depending on the change in settlement, the effect of size in piled foundation systems was investigated. As a result of the analysis; In the case of increasing the pile length, the amount of settlement decreased, while the amount of settlement increased when the impacting load increased. Amount of settlement It is determined that it will differ depending on the soil profile if it is evaluated based on the change in groundwater level.
