Helical piles are increasingly used to support and rehabilitate structures subjected to both tensile and compressive axial loads This paper presents a detailed investigation into the axial perform

Axial testing and numerical modeling of square shaft helical piles under compressive and tensile loading

Tapered piles, which have greater top cross sections than bottom ones, have the potential for substantial cost advantages for static loading conditions. However, tapered piles have not often been c...

Effect of slope on p-y curves due to surcharge load :

The results of an alternative procedure to the p‐y method for the elastoplastic analysis of laterally loaded piles are presented. This analysis is based on the boundaryelement method and assumes kn...

Discussion of "Analysis of Laterally Loaded Piles in Soft Clays"

Large lateral loads may act on pile foundation supporting structures, such as bridge abutments, retaining walls, and structures subjected to wind–earthquake loads. A pile with fins is a newly devel...

Experimental and theoretical studies of laterally loaded finned piles in sand

Eighteen lateral loading tests were conducted on large-scale steel piles to establish the lateral behaviour of tapered piles in cohesionless soil. Three piles 1.52 m in length with different taper ...

Response of tapered piles subjected to lateral loading

Tapered piles have a substantial advantage with regard to their load-carrying capacity in the downward frictional mode. The uplift performance of tapered piles, however, has not been fully understo...

Uplift behaviour of tapered piles established from model tests

Tapered piles represent a more efficient distribution of pile material than uniform cross section piles in several respects. An extensive experimental research program was conducted to study the ef...
