Numerical Analysis of Laterally Loaded Pile Near Sloping Ground
Lateral loads are most commonly experienced by bridges, transmission towers, high rise buildings, and on-shore and off-shore structures. These structures when they are resting on sloping ground, the conventional analysis of laterally loaded piles proves to be ineffective in estimating the behavior of the piles accurately. The current study deals with finite element analysis of single pile and pile groups in sloping ground subjected to lateral load using PLAXIS 3D. A parametric study was considered to understand the behavior of piles embedded in stratified soil located in sloping ground of varying slope (Horizontal, 1 V:2H, 1 V:3H, and 1 V:5H). The numerical results compared with the experimental, those obtained from laboratory tests, are found to be in good agreement. It is observed that, with an increase in slope from horizontal to 1 V:5H, the pile head deflection decreased. The effect of slope on pile capacity, the behavior of lateral deflections of single and group of piles, and their efficiencies are also studied.
