Book excerpt: Field tests were performed to study the horizontal load-displacement characteristics of natural soil deposits and to associate these characteristics with the behavior of laterally loaded piles. The ultimate objective of the tests was to acquire information essential for the design of laterally loaded soil-supported structures. Three soil conditions were considered: (1) bay mud with a desiccated crust in its natural dry state, (2) bay mud submerged within the area of testing, and (3) a hydraulic fill of granular material classified as SP by the unified soil classification system. Segmental pile tests were performed with three sizes of laterally loaded segments and at various depths below ground surface in the bay mud. (Similar tests in the hydraulic fill were covered in a previous NCEL report.) Lateral load tests on full-scale piles from 4 to 16 inches in diameter were performed at each test site. Theoretical information, available soil data, and results of the segmental pile tests were compared and combined to establish representative lateral load-displacement relationships for the soil at any depth at the three sites by using rectangular hyperbolas. Theoretical predictions of the response of laterally loaded piles were made using these relationships, and the results were compared with data obtained during the lateral load tests on piles. Experimental data and theoretical predictions compared favorably. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complexities of designing piles for lateral loads are manifold as there are many forces that are critical to the design of big structures such as bridges, offshore and waterfront structures and retaining walls. The loads on structures should be supported either horizontally or laterally or in both directions and most structures have in common t

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method previously presented by the author (in ASTM STP 154) is generalized to encompass soils having nonlinear p-y characteristics. This results in a method that can handle, but is not restricted to, pile-soil systems having (1) piles greater than 9 m (30 ft) in length having free, fixed, or partially fixed heads, and any cross-sectional shape and length relationship, for example, constant, tapered, or stepped, and of any materials or combination of materials; (2) soils of any variation with depth, whether homogeneous, stratified, or combinations thereof, and having p-y characteristics of any nature; (3) ability to qualitatively and quantitatively predict behavior and stresses under static, fluctuating, and repetitive lateral loadings, or where larger emergency loads can be interspersed between normal loads. Ways are suggested for dealing with each of these factors. In addition, a method is proposed for obtaining the effective soil constant at a given site for a range of lateral loads, using empirical test data from free-head piles of the same characteristics subjected to lateral loads. The method is validated by use on previously published data of a comprehensive series of tests on free-head piles by Assadeh and Davison (Journal of the Soil Mechanics and Foundation Division, Proceedings of the American Society of Civil Engineers, Volume 96, No. SM5, Sept. 1970, pp. 1583-1603). Using the soil constants resulted in computed load-deflection curves closely approximating actual data. These constants are used in turn to compute the expected deflections and pile stress of those same piles under fixed-head conditions.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pile supported bridges are typically constructed near or in a natural or man-made slope and are subjected to lateral loading. The current design method for laterally loaded piles involves the use of Winkler's spring concept with the standard nonlinear p-y curves. The available p-y curves were developed based on results of full-scale lateral loading tests for piles in level ground. Due to limited test results from full-scale lateral loading tests for piles installed near a slope, current practice has no specific procedures for the design of piles in such condition. This study is aimed at obtaining a better understanding of the effects of slope on lateral capacity of piles through experimental and analytical programs. A series of full-scale lateral loading tests on instrumented piles in cohesive soils were conducted at Oregon State University in 2009 to assess the behavior of laterally loaded piles in free-field and near slope conditions. Data from the tests was used to backcalculate p-y curves. It was found that for small soil displacements (i.e., less than 0.5 inch), the proximity of slope has small to insignificant effect on the lateral pile response. At larger soil displacements, the proximity of slope adversely affected the lateral capacity of the soil-pile system and consequently the p-y curves. Specifically with regard to Caltrans Bridge Design Specifications Article 4.5.6.5.1, for maximum allowable pile deflection of 1/4-inch under Service Limit State Load, the soil slope appears to have insignificant effects for piles installed at 2D or further from the slope crest, where D is the pile diameter. For piles installed on the slope crest (0D), the effects of slope are most pronounced and should be considered at all displacement levels. The effects of slope on the lateral capacity were insignificant for piles installed at distances of 8D or greater from the slope crest. Based on comparisons of the back-calculated p-y curves from these experiments, p-multipliers are proposed as a function of soil displacement to account for slope effects. Using the full-scale test results, the capability of available p-y curves to predict the lateral response of free-field piles was evaluated. It was found that standard p-y curves available in the literature for cohesive soils give reasonable predictions of the lateral pile response for free-field piles. Hyperbolic p-y criteria appear to be most suitable to describe the back-calculated baseline p-y curves from this study. In addition, the capability of existing p-y recommendation for piles on a slope crest was evaluated; design guidelines based on the findings from this study is presented. Finally, the finite element program Plaxis 3D was used to simulate the lateral loading tests. The procedure was validated by comparing the computed results with the full-scale test results.
