Research on Temperature Field of Cement-Mixing Pile-Reinforced Soft Soil Foundation

To investigate the mechanism of reinforcing soft soil with cement-mixing pile, based on ABAQUS secondary development, a numerical simulation study of the hydration reaction of cement-mixing piles was conducted. In this study, the influence of ground temperature variations on the distribution patterns of the temperature field in and around the pile was also considered. The temperature field of the pile–soil model can be primarily divided into two stages: the temperature rise stage (0~5 d) and the temperature decrease stage (5~90 d). The following observations were made: (1) The temperature of the pile body rapidly increased within the first 5 days, dissipating heat to the surrounding soil, leading to an elevation of the temperature in the soil around the pile and a decrease in soil moisture content. Around the 5th day, the temperature reached its maximum value, and the heat release rate of the pile body was higher than that of the surrounding soil. (2) With a 15% cement admixture, under the influence of 425# cement hydration, the temperature inside the pile increased by 5 °C, and the temperature in the soil around the pile increased by 4.2 °C. After considering the ground temperature, the temperature in the soil around the pile increased by 4.6 °C. (3) The maximum temperature generated during the hydration of 425# Portland cement is higher than that of 525#; the temperature of the soil around piles made with 425# cement is consistently higher than that made with 525#. (4) The hydration temperature of piles with a 10% cement admixture increased by 4.4 °C; for piles with a 15% cement admixture, the hydration temperature increased by 6.6 °C; and for piles with a 20% cement admixture, the hydration temperature increased by 9.1 °C. The temperature field of this structure gradually stabilizes after 7 days with increasing time and cement admixture. The results indicate that the hydration of cement-mixing piles raises the temperature of the soil around the piles. Additionally, the temperature resulting from the hydration of cement-mixing pile increases with the addition of cement.
