Single Piles and Pile Groups Under Lateral Loading

Couverture
CRC Press, 1 janv. 2000 - 480 pages
Guiding the professional through the complexities of lateral-load design, this book and CD-ROM combination introduces the procedures involved in piles and pile group design. This is a problem that can only be solved by accounting for the soil resistance as related to the lateral deflection of the pile.

Intricate equations are derived and fully explained, enabling the designer to find the critical loads, either causing a pile to be overloaded or causing too much lateral deflection. The CD-ROM contains simplified versions of two required programs that allow the reader to check the solutions of some of the examples given in the book and to find answers to related problems.
