“…These ultimate capacities were determined as: (1) the load at which the lateral load -pile head displacement curve becomes linear or substantially linear (Meyerhof et al 1981, Chari and Meyerhof 1983, Prasad and Chari 1996, Lee et al 2010; or (2) the lateral load/moment at a rotation angle of 3.5°-5.5° (Laman et al 1999, Dickin andLaman 2003) or 5° (Haldar et al 2000).

This paper investigates nonlinear response of 51 laterally loaded rigid piles in sand. Measured response of each pile test was used to deduce input parameters of modulus of subgrade reaction and the gradient of the linear limiting force profile using elastic-plastic solutions. Normalised load -displacement and/or moment -rotation curves and in some cases bending moment and displacement distributions with depth are provided for all the pile tests, to show the effect of load eccentricity on the nonlinear pile response and pile capacity. The values of modulus of subgrade reaction and the gradient of the linear limiting force profile may be used in the design of laterally loaded rigid piles in sand. Abstract.

In many fields of application, piles are used for the transfer of both axial and lateral loads into the ground. This combined loading leads to interaction of the horizontal and vertical load-bearing behavior. However, in current engineering practice these effects are usually neglected, since a clear description of the interactions and of their quantitative importance dependent on system parameters is lacking. A numerical simulation model was therefore established to identify and quantify the effects of combined loading of piles in sand soil. The model is validated by comparison with the results of published model tests. The model results are of good quality. Moreover, deficiencies of the model tests and their assessment with respect to interaction approaches were identified. The results of the numerical study show that with combined compression loading mostly favorable effects arise, with combined tension loading mostly unfavorable ones. However, the interaction behavior is very complex, and, depending on loading conditions, opposite effects on system stiffness and ultimate load can occur. An interaction diagram is presented, which gives a good impression of the importance of interaction effects. A parametric study shows that compact piles with a small length-to-diameter ratio and piles with almost rigid behavior show particularly strong interaction effects.
