Abstract: The paper discusses the 3D finite element based numerical analysis to predict the lateral ground movement and to investigate the response of piles under these induced ground movements. In the analysis, the source of ground movement has been due to an unsupported excavation in uniform clay medium. The pile is treated as linear elastic material and the soil is treated as elasto-plastic materials based on Drucker-Prager constitutive models with nonassociated flow rule. The results obtained from the analyses are presented in terms of the ground movement profiles, lateral deflections and bending moment along the length of pile, which are of prime interest to designers. Numerical results indicate that the response of piles mainly depends on the parameters, viz., magnitude of soil movement, pile location etc. The results predicted from the present analysis are in fairly good agreement with those of published work of Poulos & Chen (1996).
