Abstract

Abstract: Prestressed concrete pipe piles, due to the long body length, are easily deformed during the construction, transportation and installation, and such deformation will affect the utilization of pipe piles and even result in broken piles. In order to ensure the construction safety of prestressed pipe piles, it's necessary to study the flexural performance and deformation of pipe piles under loads generated from the utilization stage. This paper, by virtue of ABAQUS, analyzes the contribution of wall thickness of prestressed concrete pipe piles, the diameter of spiral bar and diameter of prestressed reinforcement to the flexural deformation of pipe piles, and the corresponding results can serve as the theoretical basis of designing and laying prestressed concrete pipe piles.
