Abstract: | In this paper, the theoretical solutions of maximum deflection and moment for laterally loaded long piles in a uniform subgrade reaction modulus linear-plastic soil are presented. These solutions are in the form of normalized results and enable easy and exact calculation of the deflection or moment for three head loading conditions. Comparisons between the theoretical solution and a numerical solution established previously showed good agreement. |
