Abstract
The lateral soil pressures, tip load, and displacements of instrumented single rigid model piles in homogeneous loose sand and soft clay under vertical eccentric and central inclined loads have been investigated. A comparison of the test results with theoretical pressure distributions and displacements of the pile for the working load range has been made. Reasonable agreement has been found between the observed and predicted displacements and suggested nondimensional p–y curves. The analyses are also compared with the results of some field case records. Key words: displacements, clay, eccentric load, horizontal load, lateral soil pressure, instrumentation, model test, pile, sand.
