Some Developments On Laterally Loaded Piles With Particular Reference To P-Y Subgrade Reaction Method - Resume:

Dans cet article on parle sortout de l'approche de calcule pour les pieux charges horizontalement avec particuliere reference aux curbes p-y et è une solution semi-empirique qui prende en consideration les variations typiques du module du sol avec la deformation obtenue par les données expérimentales. 1. INTRODUCTION The analysis of the piles under lateral loads depends very strictly from the pile stiffness and geometry, from the soil type and from the strain field. Different approaches were adopted in solving the problem. Some Authors developed methods for estimating the ultimate lateral resistance of piles and pile groups by conventional static approaches, as the Brom's widely known (1964) or by the plane strain solution developed by Davis (1961) or by empirical engineering con­siderations l
