In this paper piled raft foundation has been analysed by nonlinear finite element method. The three dimensional nonlinear finite element analyses predict the actual behaviour of axial load distribution. The axial load variation is nonlinear for all the piles. For all pressure the element stress is more than the element stress. For any pressure the nodal deflection is maximum at top and minimum at bottom. Up to certain height the element stress is almost zero for all pressures. After that height the element stress increases with increase in height. The element stress increases with increase in pressure the measurement of axial load distribution in pile in field is very difficult and costly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
