Design of Slope Stabilizing Piles

摘要

This paper discusses a procedure for the design of slope stabilizing piles in211u001ewhich the resistance provided by the piles is assessed via an analysis of their 211u001eresponse to lateral ground movements. The mechanics of such pile-soil interaction 211u001eare discussed and it is shown that there are a number of modes of failure, 211u001einvolving yield of the soil and/or the piles themselves. For the ultimate case, a 211u001eseries of design charts are given to assist in the assessment of pile resistance. 211u001eA conceptual approach for designing piles to limit slope movements is also 211u001epresented. Finally, the application of the approach to two documented case 211u001ehistories is described.
