Piles’ load distribution in pile raft and pile group under lateral loading
Piled rafts and pile groups are the common types of deep foundations for tall buildings subjected to combined loading. Their complex behavior made their design and analysis very complex and sometimes uneconomical. This paper explores the distribution of lateral load on piles within a piled raft and pile group under a constant vertical load. The study utilized experiments with small-scale models of piles and rafts to observe the behavior. The response of each pile was recorded and analyzed with respect to lateral displacement. The results indicated that in the case of piled rafts under lateral load, the rear piles are resisting more load than the front piles, unlike in pile groups where front piles carry more load than rear piles. This behavior continued until the number of piles reaches nine, thereafter the load-carrying behavior shifted, and front piles began to carry more lateral load. The reason behind this shift is that as the number of piles increases, the raft contact pressure decreases and subsequently decreases the stiffness of soil below raft and hence the piled raft starts behaving as a pile group, where front piles carry more lateral load.
