Shaking table test of composite foundation with rigid pile

The anti-seismic behavior of composite foundation with rigid pile was studied by a shaking table test with the scale factor of 1/10.The earthquake response of composite foundation with rigid piles,the deformation behavior of piles and soil,the influence of superstructure,and the effect of the flexible wall container,etc.were discussed.It was found that,the composite foundation with rigid piles had a good anti-seismic performance,the influence of superstructure to the deformation of piles was not noticeable,the movement of piles was mainly controlled by the free field response,and the boundary effect of model test was properly treated by the flexible wall container.
