Abstract
The earthquake is the natural disaster which can produce great harm, and it happens around
the world every year. During the earthquake, the building foundations become invalid induced by
the liquefaction which is beyond 50%. Therefore, domestic and foreign academia and engineers
have placed great emphasis on the influences of the stone columns in saturated sand foundation.
Recently, the researchers have certain knowledge of the reinforcement mechanism, reinforcement
effects and the design method for resisting the liquefaction. However, the studies about the
reinforcement of saturated silt foundation are rare, even still a blank.
Combining with the National Youth Science fund projects named” the liquefaction
mechanisms of the saturated silt and the foundations reinforced by the stone columns dynamic
characteristics”. In this paper, a series of laboratory experiments are conducted including resonant
column tests, cyclic triaxial tests and shaking table tests. Mainly contents as following:
1. It explores the influences on the dynamic shear modulus, damping ratio and the stress
strain by resonant column test, such as the dry density, confining pressure.
2. It makes analysis of the matters influencing on the liquefaction of silt, such as dry density,
confining pressure and the content of silt by the cyclic triaxial test. It can be observed that clay
content have different effects on its dynamic strength. In this paper, we make attempts to put
forward a proposal about the growth model for the pore pressure of silt.
3. A series of shaking table tests are conducted including the sand foundation in field
foundation, the silt foundation in field foundation and stone column composite foundation. It
compares the pore pressure ratio in any case. It is found that the liquefaction resistance of silt
foundation is better than the sand which caused by the stone columns who can make effects on
drainage decompression and damping.
