摘要
Pile-supported embankments are commonly employed for highways in soft soil areas. Extensive studies have been conducted on high embankments under static loading. However, low embankments with lower costs and carbon footprint have not yet been thoroughly studied. This study aims to investigate the performance of pile-supported low embankments under cyclic traffic loading by carrying out two large-scale model tests. The soft soil was constructed using Kaolin clay, and the cyclic traffic loading was simulated using a localized semi-sinusoidal function. The effect of geosynthetic reinforcement on the load transfer mechanism of pile-supported low embankments was investigated by comparing the measured data from unreinforced and reinforced cases. Test results show that geosynthetic reinforcement reduces settlement and leads to faster stabilization of settlement in low embankments. Pile-supported low embankments experience a rapid decrease followed by a stabilization in pile efficacy with increased cyclic loading, and geosynthetic reinforcement increase the pile efficacy and facilitate quicker stabilization. Geosynthetic reinforcement enhances the transfer of static and dynamic stresses to piles, resulting in less stress degradation under cyclic loading. Based on experimental results, pile-supported embankments should account for the adverse effects of cyclic loading, even if they are classified as high embankments according to existing analytical models.
