Static and Dynamic Lateral Loading of Pile Groups
A key concern of bridge engineers is the design and performance of pile group foundations under lateral loading events, such as ship or ice impacts or earthquakes. This report documents a research program in which the following were developed: (1) a numerical model to simulate static and dynamic lateral loading of pile groups, including structural and soil hysetresis and energy dissipation through radiation; (2) an analytical soil model for nonlinear unit soil response against piles (i.e., p-y curves) for dynamic loading and simple factors (i.e., p-multipliers) to permit their use in modeling groups of piles; (3) experimental data obtained through static and dynamic testing of large-scale pile groups in various soil profiles; and (4) preliminary recommendations for expressions for p-y curves, damping factors, and p-multipliers for analysis of laterally loaded pile groups for design purposes. The report also describes experimental equipment for performing site-specific, static, and dynamic lateral load tests on pile groups.
