P-y curve model for weak carbonate rock proposed by Abbs (1983)

PileLAT program adopts the p-y curve model of liquefied sand recommended in Rollins (2005) based on the full-scale lateral load tests.

This blog explains how to start a new analysis for laterally loaded single piles using the PileLAT program. Step by step, it demonstrates how to (1) Define pile section and length, (2) Create p-y curve model, (3) Define ground profile, (4) Apply pile head loads, (5) Run the analysis, and (6) View the analysis results.
