Hi guys,
I am attaching a safe file which I had modelled for a raft over pile. The file is imported from ETABS.
Well I have modelled the pile for vertical spring.
I have certain queries, may be the experienced engineers could shed some light on it,
1. I have seen in this thread the stress on using the horizontal springs, if somebody could eloborate as to how to calculate the same.
2. I wanted to check the punching shear at the piles as well as the columns, if somebody could eloborate on the same.
The pile diameter is 1.5m, the springs are calculated as pile dia/allowable displacement.
Regards,
Jaks.
