  • Recycled concrete aggregates are used to replace the gravel core material of encased stone columns, forming a new foundation treatment method—recycled concrete aggregate encased column, to improve the problem that the gravel strength cannot be fully exerted when the encased stone column is used to treat liquefied and soft soil foundations. Laboratory model tests were performed to study the effect of encasement length, stiffness, and the ratio of column length to diameter on the bearing characteristics and aggregate fragmentation degree of the encased recycled concrete aggregate column. The results show that when the length of encasement is 1 to 6 times the column diameter, the bearing capacity of the column can be significantly increased by increasing the encasement length. When the length of encasement is less than 1 or more than 6 times the column diameter, the length change of encasement does not significantly influence the bearing capacity of the column. The critical stiffness of encasement is about 100 kN/m. When the stiffness of the encasement is less than the critical stiffness, increasing the encasement stiffness can prominently improve the bearing capacity of the column. However, when the stiffness of the encasement is greater than the critical stiffness value, increasing the encasement stiffness cannot significantly improve the bearing capacity of the column. When the length of the geosynthetic-encased recycled concrete aggregate column is fixed, columns with a length-to-diameter ratio greater than 10 have a lower bearing capacity, and mainly produce local bending to varying degrees within the depth range from 10 cm to 30 cm, while columns with a length-to-diameter ratio less than 7 have a relatively higher bearing capacity and mainly experience slight bulging deformation without local bending. Besides, there is a positive correlation between the fragmentation degree of the recycled concrete aggregate and the ultimate load that the column can withstand. Increasing the encasement length, stiffness and column diameter will increase the fragmentation degree of the core material. Therefore, when designing a single geosynthetic-encased recycled concrete aggregate column, full consideration should be given to the relationship between the encasement length, stiffness, the ratio of column length to diameter, and the fragmentation degree of the concrete aggregate, to obtain the optimal design scheme.
