This blog shows how easily parameters for the API Sand p-y curve model are entered in PileLAT — with guided input fields, quick soil-layer assignment, and an instant ground-profile preview that updates dynamically as you work.

To demonstrate the reliability of our PileLAT program, we modelled the full-scale single pile lateral load test documented by Christensen (2006) at Brigham Young University. This benchmark case provided an excellent opportunity to validate the program against high-quality field data, with results that closely matched the measured responses.

The implementation of p-y curve for Reese Sand in PileLAT is based on Reese et al. (1974) for both static and cyclic loading conditions.

Simpson and Brown (2003) addressed this issue by developing specific p-y curves tailored to the behaviour of Piedmont residual soils

Pseudo-static analysis for pile foundations subject to liquefaction and lateral spreading requires the using of appropriate p-y curve models

Pushover analysis, also known as non-linear static analysis or pushover load analysis, is a common structural engineering method used to ass
