Seismic Analysis of Inclined Micropiles Using Numerical Method
Some design codes have restricted the use of inclined micropiles in seismic zones. Recent observations following seismic events have shown however, that inclined micropiles behave efficiently when subjected to earthquake loading. In this study, seismic analyses have been performed on two dimensional plain-strain models of inclined micropiles, using finite element code PLAXIS. Parametric analyses were performed to assess effects of batter angle. Results of the analyses showed an increase in axial force and a decrease in shear force and bending moments with increasing batter angle due to seismic loading. The results show that inclined micropiles have good performance under seismic loading.
