摘要：In engineering practice, the measured bearing capacity of a sand pile composite foundation in a mucky soil layer is much larger than the design value. Based on the sand pile construction and the load application process, a method of calculating the bearing capacity of the foundation based on the effective stress was proposed. Cavity diameter expansion in sand pile construction was simplified into a planar problem, and the cavity expansion theory was used to establish the expression of the rate of displacement and the horizontal stress increase. Based on the e–p curve and the calculation of the degree of consolidation, the relationships between the horizontal and vertical effective stress and the void ratio were obtained. According to the close relationship between the bearing capacity of the foundation in a mucky soil layer and the water content, an expression describing the relationships between the bearing capacity of the foundation, effective stress, void ratio, and water content was established. For the temporary engineering foundation treatment project, which needs a high bearing capacity but allows large foundation deformation, the design of sand pile composite foundations uses these relationships to take the consolidation effect of mucky soil into consideration, thereby reducing the replacement rate and lowering the construction cost.
