Theory of Piles in Swelling and Shrinking Soils
Piles are frequently used for foundations in swelling and shrinking soils to suppress structural movements. In this paper, a method of analyzing the movement of a pile in swelling soil is presented. The analysis is based on the simplifying assumption that the soil can be treated as an elastic material but modifications to the analysis are described which allow consideration of such factors as non-homogeneity, slip at the pile-soil interface and crushing or tensile failure of the pile.
