Efficacy of Strain Wedge Method Against Traditional p-y Method for Analysis of Piles Subjected to Different Load and Soil Condition: A Review
Abstract: Pile foundation plays a major role in design of structures as its lateral response dominates the design subjected to lateral loads. These loads acting on foundations may be sustained from traffic loading on a bridge pier or earth pressure in a retaining wall. As soil reaction and pile deflection affect each other for a lateral load, this becomes a very complex soil-structure interaction problem. There are many approaches or methods …
