In this tutorial example, the use of the PileGroup program is demonstrated for analysing a pile group subject to TBM launching loading. This example involves a pile group consisting of 20 numbers of 1200 mm diameter CFA piles of 20 m long, which were spaced at three pile diameters in both directions.

In this tutorial example, the use of the PileGroup program is demonstrated for analysing a pile group in sand. This example involves a 4 x 4 pile group consisting of 16 numbers of 760 mm diameter driven prestressed concrete piles of 16.5 m long, which were spaced at three pile diameters in both directions.

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.

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

This blog introduces a very useful tool for pile length variation analysis available in our PileLAT program for laterally loaded piles. When

P-Y curve model of massive rock is proposed by Liang et al. (2009). This model calculates the ultimate lateral resistance of rock with...

This blog presents a design example for a 1.2 m diameter reinforced concrete bored pile installed through interbedded clay and sand layers

In this blog, we explore the capabilities of PileAXL program in analyzing the axial capacity and settlement of piles.

This blog presents a case study for an example from "ICP Design Methods for Driven Piles in Sands and Clays” by Jardine et al. (2005)

APT T-Z Curves for clay and sand are included in the PileAXL program for pile settlement analysis.
