Abstract
This paper presents a study on the ductility capacity of steel piled pipes repaired by steel patch plates, and also shows a study concerned with the maximum bending moment of repaired steel piled pipes. In this study, the cantilever FE model is used to study the ductility capacity of repaired steel piled pipes. This cantilever FE model is the partial model picked out a steel piled jetty. Based on pushover analyses of a number of cantilever FE models, an empirical formula on the ductility capacity of repaired steel piled pipes is proposed for the repair design of corroded steel pile.
