Dimensionamento de estacas helicoidais

Dimensionamento de estacas helicoidais

Abstract

O trabalho aqui apresentado tem como objetivo analisar o dimensionamento de estacas metálicas helicoidais, instaladas em solo residual tropical poroso, típico do interior do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Pretende-se mostrar quais os métodos teóricos semi-empíricos mais usados e aplicá-los a fim de se aferir sobre a sua confiabilidade. Neste sentido, nesta dissertação é exposto o estudo de um caso prático do dimensionamento de duas estacas metálicas helicoidais. As duas estacas diferem apenas no número de hélices, pretendendo-se desse modo aferir as diferenças com acréscimo de uma hélice ao nível do aumento da capacidade de carga e redução dos assentamentos. Este estudo resultou de uma parceria entre duas instituições de ensino, a Universidade da Beira Interior (Portugal) e a Escola de Engenharia de São Carlos da Universidade de São Paulo (Brasil). Este decorreu em duas fases essenciais. Numa primeira fase efetuaram-se ensaios de carga estática rápida à compressão em duas estacas, numa área em que se tinha algum conhecimento das características do maciço a partir de Ensaios de Penetração Dinâmica (SPT) e Ensaios de Penetração Estática (CPT). Na segunda fase efetuou-se o tratamento de toda essa informação; desenhou-se o perfil do maciço, determinaram-se os parâmetros mecânicos dos vários materiais, e avaliou-se a capacidade de carga de ambas as estacas. A capacidade de carga foi estimada para cada estaca através de métodos semi-empíricos e por diversas interpretações gráficas dos ensaios de carga estática rápida. Por fim, comparam-se todos os resultados e verificou-se a viabilidade da aplicação das expressões semi-empíricas.

This work aims to investigate the design of helical piles, anchored in tropical residual soil porous, typical of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. It is intended to verify the uncertainties of the theoretical semi-empirical methods available to determine helical pile capacity. In this sense, this dissertation describes a practical case study of the design of two different models of helical piles. The two piles differ only in the number of helices. Therefore, in this case it was investigated the possibility of gain in capacity and reduction in settlement by the inclusion of one more helix. This study is a partnership between two Universities, the University of Beira Interior (Portugal) and the School of Engineering of São Carlos, University of São Paulo (Brazil). This work was performed in two main phases. In a first stage, it was carried out pile static load tests on two helical piles, installed in an area with the soil profile obtained from standard penetration testing (SPT) and cone penetration tests (CPT). In the second stage, the data from these tests were analyzed; the mechanical parameters of the soil where the helices where installed were obtained by laboratory tests performed on undisturbed samples, and the pile capacity of the both piles was evaluated. The pile capacities were estimated through semi-empirical methods and from various graphical interpretations of the static load tests. Finally, all results were compared and verified the feasibility of the application of semiempirical expressions.
