PileAXL is a program for single piles under axial loading (compression or tension) for both onshore and offshore foundations.

Partial factors can be applied to soil strength and external loads in the PileLAT program as per the design requirements in Eurocode.

P-Y curves for weak rock in the PileLAT program are calculated using the method proposed by Reese (1997) and shown in the figure below.

We are pleased to announce that PileLAT Version 2.3.2 is released with the following improvements and updates: Version 2.3.2 - February...

We are pleased to announce that PileLAT Version 2.3.1 has been released with the following improvements and updates.

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

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.

A wide range of p-y curves are available in PileLAT and PileGroup programs for modelling behaviour of soils and rocks under lateral loading.
