Investigation of group effect in configurations of batter pile groups under lateral load in sand

| Summary: | Piles are usually used in groups under the foundation of structures; therefore, the study of the effect of pile-pile interaction and its overall influence on the bearing capacity of each pile and pile group settlement is of great importance. In this paper, several models were chosen to investigate the soil deformation pattern, in which the batter of piles with respect to the vertical was considered as a variable. Pile groups consisting of four Aluminum piles with rectangular cross sections were experimentally studied. Deformations were obtained using the analysis of sequential digital images and the measurement of soil particle movements. Experience shows that batter piles in pile groups under lateral loading changes the deformation pattern compared to the case when the piles are vertical in the group pile. The results of the conducted research indicate that the existence of batter piles beside the vertical ones, on the one hand increases the bearing capacity of pile group, and on the other hand the experimental data shows that shadow effect impacts the soil-pile interaction and bearing capacity of batter pile group considering the configuration and the position of piles does not increase; despite what is expected. |
