Abstract

This paper systematically investigates the mechanical properties of contact surfaces between soil and piles under static loading conditions across various scenarios through comprehensive laboratory experiments. The study offers an overview of current experimental equipment and testing protocols, succinctly describes the mechanical characteristics of pile-soil contact surfaces influenced by multiple factors, and summarizes existing constitutive models related to these interfaces. The objective of this research is to provide a more accurate and reliable laboratory methodology for analyzing the static mechanical properties of pile-soil contact surfaces, thereby fostering innovative advancements in the safety of pile foundations.
