a simplified nonlinear calculation method was developed to analyze the single pile in non-homogeneous soil under excavation
considering the unloading rebound of soil and changes of soil property caused by excavation.The calculated results show good agreement with testing results obtained by the present method
which indicates that the validity of this method is verified.Moreover
we studied the responses of the single pile after excavation under vertical load using the simplified method.It is found that the ultimate vertical bearing capacity and vertical stiffness of the pile loaded after excavation are overestimated by both the conventional loading test method and loading test with the sleeve method
which could lead to an unsafe design.In addition
excavation causes rebound of soils around the pile and then results in tension force in the pile.To avoid the pile be pulled apart
the reinforcing bars in the middle-lower part of the pile should be raised when the excavation depth is deep.The unloading rebound of soil around caused a great decrease in stiffness of the pile top.
