Abstract
Tilting of buildings due to uneven settlement, construction quality issues or other problems is one of the critical accidents threatening the safety of buildings. In order to determine a reasonable solution with respect to the rectification of the tilting building, detection of the stresses of the substructure is necessary. In this study, a stress release method to test the stress of prefabricated pipe pile under loading is studied by combining experimental research and finite element numerical simulation. Based on various measurements, such as traditional strain gauges, vibrating wire strain gauges, and three-dimensional digital image correlation (DIC) tests, the relationship between local residual stress and actual stress of the slotted area at different load levels is determined. Meanwhile, the stress release process in slotted precast pipe pile was numerically simulated with ABAQUS to investigate the influence of the slotting dimension parameters on the stress release rate at different load levels. Based on 1042 sets of finite element modeling results of multi-parameter combination, the quantitative relationship between slot width, depth, spacing, prestress level and stress release rate is studied. An explicit prediction model of the stress release rate is given by regression analysis of combined test results and simulation data. With the prediction model, the stress condition of a loaded precast pipe pile can be accurately predicted based on low-loss slotting. Compared to the traditional stress release method, the proposed method has better controllability and applicability, less damage to the structure, and stronger anti-disturbance ability.
