File: Some aspects of the analysis and design of an embedded pile wall - O.Koreta
This paper presents some aspects of the design and analysis of an embedded pile wall.The wall is represented by a row of reinforced concrete piles with 60cm diameter and 13m length. The embedment depth is 8.5m.The calculations are carried out using different methods: conventional methods which consist in the limit equilibrium analysis and the calculations are normally performed by the simple earth pressure formula.; beam spring analysis performed through program ETABS; full numerical analysis (FEM) performed through program PLAXIS. The results of the above methods have been compared with each other. The differences between the results are present because each method consider different factors in the calculation.
