3,4,5 – triangular cyclic loading; 6,7,8 – dynamic loading (1, 3, 5Hz) RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The curves of force-displacement relationships were used to present the uplifting and compressive resistance of pile, and the results were shown in Fig In the static cases, the uplift resistance decreased slightly when the experiment is repeated from 0.5kN to 0.47kN, while the compressive capacity of pile increased slightly -5.4kN to -6.3kN For the cyclic case, the tensile capacity of pile was significantly lower than static case, but the compressive figure reached the highest value at -7.31kN in the full cyclic case Dynamic case saw a degree trends when the frequency increased At frequency of 1Hz, the figure was highest at 0.53kN for tensile case and -7.15kN for compressive case Thus, the differences in the bearing capacity of pile for both static and dynamic cases showed little differences Static loadings: case 1, Figure Load – displacement relationship curve: 1,2 – static loading;
