Abstract:A BEM (Boundary Element Method) based method has been developed for the analysis of laterally loaded piled raft foundation. This method considers the raft-soil contact contribution and all the interactions between the piles, the soil and the raft. The nonlinear soil response is accounted by a hyperbolic modulus reduction curve, while the nonlinear response of reinforced concrete piles is modelled accounting also for the influence of tension stiffening. The behaviour of laterally loaded pile foundation is stron… Show more
