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

[摘要] 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.
