Analysis of bearing capacity of embedded piles in cohesive soils with 2D FEM

Abstract

This article presents the research on the bearing capacity and settlement behavior of pile foundations on community building. laboratory tests data from the borehole log were used in terms of shear strength parameters for two-dimensional plane strain finite element analysis (2D FEM). In addition, the clay is modeled as the Mohr-coulomb material in an undrained condition. The pile is modeled as the elastic material. Interfaces condition between soil and structure were used around the surfaces of the pile. The authors present a relationship between different pile sections and bearing capacity for the site engineer. This article aims to determine the bearing capacity of the pile to the user who lives in community building and research cooperation between the research unit technology and innovation on civil engineering (RICE) and community organizations development institute (CODI).
