Abstract

The design of monopiles for offshore wind turbine structures is dominated by requirements resulting from serviceability and fatigue limit state as this type of foundation is primarily subjected to long-term lateral cyclic loading during its lifetime. The cycling leads to an accumulation of permanent deflections and rotations of the structure, which has to be predicted and limited to fulfil before
mentioned criteria. As current design code procedures do not take into account load characteristics and the number of load cycles, they are rather unreliable and further adjustments are required to ensure a more competitive and well suited monopile design for future projects. This paper presents a short overview of current design practice and shortcomings of the calculation methods proposed by current design codes. Then, a new small-scale test setup for the investigation of lateral pile response due to 1-dimensional (one- and two-way) cyclic loading is described. A program of experiments including monotonic and cyclic loading tests to investigate the role of load characteristics, load eccentricity and pile-soil stiffness is presented. The results are evaluated and used to identify the
parameters of a correction function for displacement accumulation rate, which accounts for the type of the applied cyclic load.
