Highlights
During earthquakes, pile foundations will be subjected to lateral ground vibrations, referred to as kinematic loads, along with the vibrations induced by superstructure, called inertial loads
A series of dynamic centrifuge experiments was performed at 60g on a model single pile and two 3×1 row pile groups with different pile spacing in a two-layered soil model to investigate the influence of pile spacing on the dynamic behaviour of pile groups
The pile group accelerations were relatively smaller in widely spaced pile group compared to a closely spaced pile group when both the pile groups respond at a similar normalised frequency (f/fsps) ratio
Summary
Pile foundations will be subjected to lateral ground vibrations, referred to as kinematic loads, along with the vibrations induced by superstructure, called inertial loads.
