Laterally Loaded Piles, Models and Measurements

A thesis presented on the comparison between different geotechnical models for single piles, which are loaded laterally at the top, on the basis of field measurements. The considered models are Blum, Brinch Hansen, Broms, the Characteristic Load Method, the Nondimensional Method, the Single Pile Module of MSheet, p-y Analysis by MPile and Finite...
