“…They have also concluded that increase in spacing reduces the pile-to-pile interaction and thus increase load carrying capacity, but larger spacing between piles is not recommended as it increases pile thickness and is uneconomical. Huchegowda et al [9] employed the finite element method (FEM) to assess the lateral load capacity of piles within a range of diameters spanning from 0.15 to 2.0 meters, all embedded in layered soil. The performance of the pile-soil system is contingent upon the specific properties of both the soil and the pile itself.…”

Pile foundations are the preferred choice for supporting heavy structures when hard bedrock is situated at considerable depths beneath weak soil conditions. The ultimate load-carrying capacity of these piles hinges on several factors, including material composition, soil properties, geometric attributes, and the mechanism of load transfer (end bearing or friction). This research focuses on investigating the load-bearing capacity and settlement characteristics of end-bearing piles in both soft clay and medium sand. The study explores these parameters by varying pile diameter, length, and spacing within a pile group. Utilizing ANSYS for analysis, the study draws comparisons between clay and sand. The study's findings reveal that clay exhibits a higher load-carrying capacity compared to sand. Additionally, it highlights that sand experiences significantly greater settlement compared to clay when an optimal pile diameter of 0.4 meters and a length of 4 meters are employed.

“…Several investigators have given well-established theories for evaluating piles and pile groups behavior under different independent loading conditions viz. lateral, vertical and uplift loading [3][4], [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21], [23][24][25][26][27], [29], [34][35][36], [42]. Various authors have conducted studies on combined lateral-uplift loading, lateral-vertical loading [18,41].…”

Laterally loaded piles are generally used where high lateral load acts on the structures. Vertical piles along with batter piles are used in structures such as chimneys, towers, dock and harbor structures, and high-rise buildings. Various techniques have been used in literature to solve the laterally loaded pile problems. Among them p-y method is preferred over all other methods. Various researchers have provided analytical solutions for vertical and batter pile problems and are discussed in this paper. Experimental investigations were also carried out by various researchers on vertical and batter piles, indicating that the negative batter piles offer large resistance to lateral loads when compared with the vertical piles. The deflection values obtained from the analytical solutions were also compared with the model tests and were found to be in a good agreement. Numerical modeling conducted by various researchers on vertical and batter pile foundation by various researchers is also discussed in this paper.

“…Batter piles are known for resisting high lateral loads but in current study the focus is on finding the uplift load capacity of the vertical as well as the batter pile having different angles. Various researchers ( [1], [3], [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20], [22], [26], [28]) have already performed study on vertical and batter piles under lateral loads, but only a few have conducted study on uplift capacity of the vertical and batter piles [4], [9], [21], [27]. In the current study experiments were conducted on small scale model piles and it also includes the change of the slenderness ratios and variation of batter angles.…”

Model study was carried out in the laboratory to know the effect of uplift loads on vertical piles, batter piles and pile groups. Mild steel piles having 22 mm outer diameter and 1 mm thickness were considered for the study. Different slenderness ratios of 18, 28, and 38 and various angles such as 0°, 15°, 25°, 35°, and 45° were considered for the study. Sand was poured at a fixed relative density in the mild steel tank. The experimental study shows that the pile and pile group attain a maximum value of uplift load capacity when the batter angle reaches to 35°. Further, increase in batter angle causes a reduction in the uplift capacity of the pile. It is also noticed from the experiment that the uplift capacity increases with the slenderness ratio of the pile but its variation is not linear. Pile group of four piles with two vertical piles having L/D ratio 38 and two batter piles of L/D ratio 28 offers same resistance as of the same pile group with all the piles having L/D ratio 38. Numerical modeling was performed using Plaxis-3D to analyse the behavior of vertical piles, batter piles and pile groups under uplift loads. A good correlation between Plaxis-3D results and experimental results was observed.
