Driven Piles: Static Analysis – Pile Groups

Upon completion of the course you will have an understanding of: block failure of pile groups settlement of pile groups in cohesionless soils using the method based on SPT Test Data and using the method based on CPT Test Data settlement of pile groups in cohesive soils and in layered soils settlement of pile groups using the Janbu Tangent Modulus Approach and the Neutral Plane Method basics of uplift capacity of driven pile groups basics of lateral capacity of driven pile groups methods to determine downdrag on a group of driven piles basics of soil and pile heave concepts of time effects on pile capacity impacts of plugging of open pile sections This course is part of a series of courses on Driven Piles including: Driven Piles: Introduction to Static Analysis Method (1 hour) Driven Piles: Pile Type and Selection (2 hours) Driven Piles: Static Analysis – Pile Groups (3 hours) Driven Piles: Static Analysis – Single Piles (3 hours) Driven Piles: Subsurface Exploration and Testing (2 hours) There will be a multiple choice test at the end of the course to gauge your understanding of the material.
