This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report focuses on the development of a new method of analysis of laterally loaded piles embedded in a multi-layered soil deposit treated as a three-dimensional continuum. Assuming that soil behaves as a linear elastic material, the governing differential equations for the deflection of laterally loaded piles were obtained using energy principles and calculus of variations. The differential equations were solved using both the method of initial parameters and numerical techniques. Soil resistance, pile deflection, slope of the deflected pile, bending moment and shear force can be easily obtained at any depth along the entire pile length. The results of the analysis were in very good agreement with three-dimensional finite element analysis results. The analysis was further extended to account for soil nonlinearity. A few simple constitutive relationships that allow for modulus degradation with increasing strain were incorporated into the analysis. The interaction of piles in groups was also studied.

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).

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

Book excerpt: Piling is a fast-moving field and in recent years there have been major advances in theory, methods, testing procedures and equipment. Some of these changes have been driven by the need for economies by improved efficiency, reduced spoil production and new methods of pile bore support. Advances in theoretical analyses allow pile design to be refined so that piles and pile groups perform to better advantage.

It affects our future well-being as well as the economic climate. Indeed, the infrastructure we are building today will shape tomorrow's communities. GeoMEast 2017 created a venue for researchers and practitioners from all over the world to share their expertise to advance the role of innovative geotechnology in developing sustainable infrastructure. This volume focuses on the role of soil-structure-interaction and soil dynamics. It discusses case studies as well as physical and numerical models of geo-structures. It covers: Soil-Structure-Interaction under static and dynamic loads, dynamic behavior of soils, and soil liquefaction. It is hoped that this volume will contribute to further advance the state-of-the-art for the next generation infrastructure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent developments in the fields of energy, transport and industrial engineering have led to the emergence of new types of structures and infrastructures subject to variable stresses, for which the usual methods for designing pile foundations are now inadequate. The recommendations presented in this book will help to partly fill this technical gap by proposing a methodological approach and calculation methods to take account of the effects of cyclic loads in the design of foundations on piles. These are based on both laboratory and full scale experiments, and on modeling carried out within the framework of the national SOLCYP project.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract : This research has investigated the response of pile foundations subjected to lateral force applied directly to pile head and loadings arising from lateral soil movements of the surrounding ground. The behaviour of pile foundations subjected to lateral soil movements was studied through physical modelling with a specially designed testing apparatus. Laboratory experiments have been undertaken on a single pile embedded in progressive moving sand. A triangular loading block was used in the model tests to induce a progressive soil movement profile. Apart from eight general tests, sixteen tests were conducted on a single pile to examine the effects of the distance between the source where soil movements were induced and the pile location, the magnitude of axial load applied at pile head, the variation of loading block angle, varying combination of sliding and stable layer depths, and pile diameter on the responses of piles. The results of previously conducted pile tests with a uniform soil movement profile were compared with those of the current tests to examine the effect of soil movement profiles on the pile behaviour. Simple solutions were proposed for predicting the pile responses. They provided good estimate of the development of maximum bending moment and maximum shear force in the piles with soil movement. Importantly, the maximum bending moments induced by the soil movements were found to be linearly related to the maximum shear forces (sliding thrust), independent of the magnitude and depth of soil movement and soil movement profiles. Experiments have also been conducted on pile groups in progressive moving sand, including various pile group configurations and spacing. Both free-head and cappedhead fixity conditions have been considered. The findings show that the resistances of the piles to lateral soil movements significantly rely on their locations in a group, especially for piles arranged in a line parallel to the soil movement direction. The results of the pile group tests were compared with those of the single pile tests. Group factors were defined in terms of maximum bending moment and modulus of subgrade reaction to quantify the impact of group effect. The simple solutions developed were extended for predicting the response of individual piles in a group with soil movement. The static and cyclic responses of laterally loaded piles in cohesionless soils have been investigated as well. Guideline for estimating the design parameters for laterally loaded rigid piles in cohesionless soils were provided from extensive back calculation of measured responses of fifty-one pile tests. The elastic-plastic solutions presented by Guo (2008) were used in the back calculation. Simple expressions were presented for estimating the parameters used in the solutions. The reliability of the back calculation, the effects of the ratio of loading eccentricity to pile embedded length on the nonlinear pile response and lateral load capacity were investigated. Additionally, the apparatus was modified to apply cyclic lateral loading, with which a series of model tests were conducted on piles in dry sand under static and cyclic loadings. Analyses of the test results show that the cyclic load level has a greater impact on the pile behaviour than the number of cycles. It is noted that the gradient of the limiting force profile will decrease and the modulus of subgrade reaction will increase, after a number of unloading and reloading cycles. The induced maximum bending moment can be estimated from the applied lateral load, eccentricity of the load, and the depth at which the maximum bending moment occurs.
