Abstract

A universal method of analyzing tapered piles under the combined action of a horizontal, vertical, and moment loading is developed using the finite-element method and with consideration of their bending stiffness. It is derived on the basis of experimental data that the coefficient of subgrade reaction varies as a function of the horizontal displacement of the pile and the depth of the layer under consideration. Procedures are proposed for determination of the coefficient of subgrade reaction on the basis of data from static probing and for consideration of the non-linearity of the deformation of the soil bed and pile material, which makes it possible to calculate the “load-displacement” curve.
