Laterally Loaded Pile Cap Connections
There is presently considerable uncertainty regarding appropriate connection details between driven piles and pile caps. Prior research on the subject suggests that given a proper embedment length, a specialized reinforced connection may not be necessary. Eliminating these costly connection details …

The behavior of laterally loaded single piles and group piles in sand
… model, is used to investigate the response of laterally loaded single and group piles in sand. A single surface, isotropic hardening constitutive model with nonassociative flow rule is used to model the behavior of sand. The purpose of the study is to gain a better understanding of the soil and …

Thermally-induced ratcheting behaviour of laterally-loaded reinforced concrete energy piles in sand
… on any thermally-induced ratcheting for the laterally-loaded reinforced concrete pile. Because of the lack of data concerning the thermomechanical behaviour of the laterally-loaded reinforced concrete (RC) piles, any numerical modelling method for this kind of problem cannot be …

Three-dimensional non-linear finite element analysis of laterally loaded piles in clay
Behavior of laterally loaded single piles and pile groups in fine grained soils are investigated using a non-linear finite element methodology. The purpose is to gather behavioral information that would help improve our knowledge of pile behavior and enhance the applicability of some existing …

An Investigation and Comparison of Accepted Design Methodologies for the Analysis of Laterally Loaded Foundations
… lateral forces. In the analysis and design of laterally loaded piles, two criterions usually govern. First, the deflection at the working load should not be so excessive as to impair the proper function of the supporting member. Second, the ultimate strength of the pile should be high enough to …

Behavior of Laterally Loaded Shafts Constructed Behind the Face of a Mechanically Stabilized Earth Block Wall
Current practice for designing laterally loaded columns that pass through an MSE Wall involves isolating the column from the MSE mass and anchoring the column into rock with a rock socket. A sizeable cost and time savings could be realized, while still maintaining reliability, if a method were …

Reliability analysis of non-linear (p-y) laterally loaded piles embedded in stiff clay below water table
Laterally loaded piles are used in some of the very important structures. Therefore, the economical design of such piling is necessary, in which a proper balance among initial cost, risk of failure, and consequences of

Design methods for deep foundations
… of a simplified procedure for analyzing laterally loaded piles and drilled shafts. A computer program that can be used to estimate deflections and maximum bending moments in single fixed-head piles (or drilled shafts) and in groups of fixed-head piles (or drilled shafts) was developed. …

Analyis [sic] and design of drilled shafts in rock
… develops (1) a new design method for axially loaded rock-socketed shafts; (b) new design methods for laterally loaded rock-socketed shafts; and (c) a method for assessing the three dimensional (30) geometric characteristics of discontinuities. The new design method for axially loaded …

An Experimental Investigation of Structural Composite Lumber Loaded by a Dowel in Perpendicular to Grain Orientation at Yield and Capacity
… comprised of an experimental analysis of beams loaded perpendicular to grain at midspan by a bolted double-shear laterally-loaded connection. Connection specimens were loaded monotonically until capacity was reached. Variables of consideration included the loaded edge distance of the connection …

Análise de esforços em estruturas aporticadas com fundações em estacas
… the condition of horizontal loading. Theories on laterally loaded piles are discussed and an application of the stiffness method to the analysis of plane frames by means of digital computers is shown. ln the last Chapter a few practical examples are solved, and graphs for the determination of the …

Single shear vs. double shear for nails in lateral loading
… develop a basis for structural design data for laterally loaded nails in double shear applicable whenever deformation is a governing factor, such as in joints of trussed rafters. The test loads at or near proportional limit show that low-carbon-steel plain-shank and helically threaded Screwtite …

Investigation of the Resistance of Pile Caps to Lateral Loading
… the current state of practice in the area of laterally loaded pile groups. A method called the "group-equivalent pile" approach (abbreviated GEP) was developed for creating analytical models of pile groups and pile caps that are compatible with established approaches for analyzing single …

Width-dependent characteristics of pile/soil system subjected to lateral force.
… for both sandy and clayey soils surrounding laterally loaded short piles. The initial value of modulus of subgrade reaction determined is based on Terzaghi, Bowles' and Vesic's method. The difference in lateral displacement of models from laboratory tests and that from numerical analysis are …
