Static behaviour of 3x3 pile group in sand under lateral loading

01 Nov 2017-Vol. 263, Iss: 3, pp 032035
TL;DR: In this paper, the static lateral load behavior of single pile in comparison with 3x3 pile group in sand is presented. And the behavior of group piles in terms of static load capacity and group efficiency has been discussed.
Abstract: This paper presents the static lateral load behaviour of single pile in comparison with 3x3 pile group in sand. The piled raft system is modelled using PLAXIS3D. Parametric studies of varying length to diameter (L/D) and spacing of piles in a group and diameter of piles (S/D) have been performed. The behaviour of group piles in terms of static lateral load capacity and group efficiency has been discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of static horizontal loading tests were carried out on three types of foundation models, i.e., piled raft, pile group and raft alone models, on sand using a geotechnical centrifuge.

TL;DR: In this article, a strain wedge method was used to assess the nonlinear p-y curve response of laterally loaded piles based on a three-dimensional soil-pile interaction through a passive wedge developed in front of the pile.

TL;DR: In this paper, a three-dimensional finite element approach is proposed to predict the response of reinforced concrete piles to horizontal loading, which allows the nonlinear effects arising from the soil-pile interaction to be properly accounted for.
