| Abstract: | The paper discusses the influence of the length of rock socketing on the behaviour of short piles under
lateral load based on a three-dimensional finite element analysis. In the analysis, pile is treated as linear elastic material and
the soil as well as rock is treated as elastic-perfectly plastic materials based on Drucker-Prager constitutive models with nonassociated
flow rule. The pile behaviour in a continuum consisting of a homogeneous soil layer overlying a rock mass layer
has been analyzed to investigate the effect of socketing of pile into rock by varying the socket lengths from 0 to 3 times the
width of pile. The numerical results obtained from the analyses have been presented in terms of the lateral load-deflection
relationships and bending moments along the length of pile with reference to various pile socket lengths. The minimum
socket lengths within which maximum beneficial effect under lateral loads can be achieved in both free headed and fixed
headed piles have also been proposed. |
