Resumen
Evaluation of the impact of new static-pressure pile penetration on used piles is vitally important for the reutilization of the used piles. The cavity expansion theory in semi-infinite soil is adopted to obtain the displacement field of the surrounding soil caused by new pile penetration, and then the displacement is applied to the used pile based on a two-stage method to analyze the deformation and internal force of the used pile. The effects of constraint conditions of the used pile, the pile rigidity and the soil modulus on the response of the used pile are considered. Meanwhile, numerical analysis is adopted to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical method. The influence of the distance between the new and used piles and the radius of the new pile is analyzed, and the measures to reduce the influence of new pile penetration on existing piles are proposed. The results show that the form of pile end only affects the deformation near the pile end. With the increase in pile diameter, the existing pile deformation gradually increases. As the distance between the existing pile and new pile increases, the existing pile deformation decreases significantly.
