Abstract:
Chinese construction enterprises have undertaken many wharf projects along the“One Belt and One Road”countries in recent years. However,lack of in-depth understanding of foreign codes brings great trouble for the construction. Taking the construction code for wharf structures of China and the execution code for bored piles of Europe EN 1536 as examples,the differences of certain part about bored cast-in-situ piles between the two codes are compared in detail in this paper. The main conclusions are as follows:1)The classification of piles in Chinese code is different from that in European code or academic method. 2)The European code establishes general principles for the execution of bored cast-in-situ piles,while there are more detailed quantitative indicators in Chinese code. 3) The European code specifies the requirements for pile bearing capacity and integrity testing,while the Chinese code has fewer requirements. Related comparisons are beneficial for Chinese construction enterprises to carry out foreign wharf projects.
