Dear oanm2000 ,
It is from ETABS manual published by ATKINS - DUBAI.
I have following queries regarding this article.
Kv represent end bearing resistance of pile ?
Kh = 0.1 Kv, Kv represent frictional resistance of pile ?
Generally frictional resistance of pile >>>> end bearing resistance, (when depth of pile (& thus surface area) is large and cohesion of soil is good)
then why Kh=0.1 Kv
If we have pile with single or multi bulbs, we have to consider bulb dia in equation of Kv?
If we have piles in group, it is neccesary to reduce Kv ? (i.e. pile efficiency)
