  3. Introduction Concepts of PPP Pile • Method using hydraulic jacking device to penetrate pipe piles by pressure • Able to check bearing capacity by pressure of hydraulic jacking device • High workability in narrow areas (0.6m x 0.6m x2m) • Small and light penetrating equipment (4 small hydraulic jack + guide steel bar + pressure plate)

  4. Introduction Advantages No vibration or noise No need to clear near pile after construction Compact jacking devices Construction possible for limited areas Checking of correct pile bearing capacity possible Disadvantages Not many construction cases Difficulty in penetration when amber or boulders exist Research Plans Estimation of pile bearing capacity through load tests – Load transfer analysis, base & shaft resistances Assessment of penetration availability according to soil conditions – Check the applied load through load cell Grouting Vibration, Noise, Dust

  5. Durability Performance Test Certification of Test Test object: Hydraulic jacking device(50Ton) Test method 1) Method: operate jacking device so a load of over 500kN is induced 2) Target lifetime:6,667 cycles 3) Velocity: within 30 seconds per cycle 4) Load drop under 500kN or oil leaking should not happen after target lifetime Environment of Laboratory: 25±5℃, 50±25% Test equipments

  14. Summary & Further study Summary The PPP pile method has many advantages compared to the existing construction method. However, there are disadvantages and not many construction cases. According to a result of the durability performance test, When a load of 500kN in the hydraulic jack was induced, there are no oil leaking after test completion. Load test plans were made considering the economic feasibility of strain gage and the installation of load cell. Analysis on load transfer and bearing capacity of piles will be conducted after completion of load test. Further study Estimation of pile bearing capacity through load tests – Load transfer analysis, base & shaft resistances Assessment of penetration availability according to soil conditions – Check the applied load through load cell 14/14
