Abstract:Based on summarizing sinking construction for steel tube piles in deep old deposited soil of 5 projects,conclusions are as follows.The bearing stratum of steel tube pile in deep old deposited soil should be medium coarse sand of 50-blow count SPT or deep old deposited soil of 40-blow count SPT.The coefficient of restitution for pile capacity is 1.26~1.40 and higher than other caly soil.Diesel hammer of D128 or D138 should be chosen for pile driving equipment.The final set should be 2~5 mmblow for second gear and 6~10 mmblow for third gear.Energy transfer coefficient for steel tube piles in deep old deposited soil is 28.5%~47.6%.The total number of blows less than 2 500 is 83.8% of the statistics steel tube piles with diameter 1 000~1 400 mm and pile driving efficiency is highest when the bearing stratum and final set is as above-mentioned.Furthermore,the control standard of pile-sinking construction soil can give instruction to theoretical research and engineering practice for steel tube pile in deep old deposited.
