Abstract

Experimental investigations on model vertical and batter pile group in uniform sands are presented. Mild steel piles in two different medium ofsand are used in this investigation. The tests are conducted on model steel pile installed in medium, and dense sand withL/d ratio is 18.75 and different batter angles of 0°, 10°, 20°, and 30°. These piles are constructed in sand and subjected to uplift loads of 60° inclination. It was found that the uplift capacity of vertical and batter piles under inclined pulls increased with increase in inclination of piles.it is also observed it a negative batter pile has greater uplift load than positive batter pile
