Study on Group Piles Effects of Offshore Engineering under Lateral Load

Article Preview

Abstract:

The mechanical behavior of group piles under lateral load is a very complex process of pile-soil interaction. Due to the group effect, the lateral capacity of individual piles can not be fully developed. Deduction factors are applied to the lateral soil reaction, and then lateral analysis is performed for individual piles. After p-y curve for each pile is constructed, the soil pressure of group piles is the sum of soil pressure of single pile at the same deflection under one pile cap. The mechanical different behaviors of the front piles and the back piles are analyzed and compared based on a practical engineering.
