Nonlinear Response of Lateral Piles with Compatible Cap Stiffness and p-Multiplier

Abstract: Response of lateral pile groups is modeled using the more accurate (than any other numerical modeling) p − y curves-based load transfer model. It is essentially underpinned by limiting force per unit length pmpu, modulus of subgrade reaction pmk, and p-multiplier pm (to cater for pile-pile interaction, pm ¼ 1 for single piles). With the model, new closed-form solutions are developed incorporating the cap-rotational stiffness kr. The solutions are presented in nondimensional charts for free-head (kr ¼ 0) throug… Show more

“…The model is underpinned by the following stipulations: The spring has a subgrade modulus k s and mk s for the moving and the stable layer, respectively. The spring has a LIFPULD p s (= p ub z / l , p ub = limiting force per unit length at a free‐head, pile base, via the slider) increasing with depth z . As with the limiting force per unit length p u along active piles , the p s reduces with rotational stiffness k θ . The impact of soil movement is mimicked by the LIFPULD p s [= α p ub l m / l ] using increasing sliding depth l m . It is adjusted by the factor α, which depends on soil movement profile (other than uniform), loading distance [from pile(s)] and rotational restraint on pile(s). …”

“…increasing to the power of depth). Guo demonstrates that it is adequate to use uniform and LIFPULD p u profiles (with depth) to model active piles in clay and sand (stiff clay), respectively. As the problems addressing here are generally pertinent to sand or clay with sufficient strength, the p s due to moving soil is stipulated as linearly increase with depth.…”
