The Given

This paper entails a detailed numerical and parametric study on the lateral behavior of piles in foundation designs. Single-piles are one of the major components of a foundation as they act as the primary component in the transmission of the weights above the structure into the ground for stability to be attained. For this reason, a detailed study on the influence generated on the p-y curves is mandatory to create a numerically valid model for use in the process of foundation design without much ado. Modeling procedure under consideration employs the use of the finite difference method (FMD) embedded in FLAC2D. FDM is used to implement a solution to the coded input for example soil and pile element parameters. The model validation process done in this paper involves the variation of some of the critical parameters such as the variation on the type of soil in the area under consideration. Next, modification of the elastic modulus of the given soil as a check on the cohesiveness, change on the loading velocity at the top of the pile, a variation of the pile material stiffness and the difference of the pile eccentricity. The results obtained from the p-y curves generated from the parameters undergo sifting through for any effects on the ultimate loading capacity of the pile to the allowed design loading limits upon full structural installation. This variation is necessary for the approval of the validity of the model in engineering design. The parametric study from this study shows that the structure is of functional strength and a tolerable factor of safety.

In the construction projects, a pile group foundation is often utilized. The group of bored piles is usually installed relatively close to each other and joined at the top by a pile cap to hold up the loads. In other hand, a fast estimation of the groups of piles capacities are needed in the preliminary design and in other conditions of projects, such as a supervisor of projects want to estimate the capacities of the group of piles. The purpose of this research is to study the correlations of groups of piles efficiencies with the number of piles and to compare the groups of piles capacities with the single piles capacities. Furthermore, this study is aimed to make a fast estimation of groups of piles capacities using proposed graphical method.The piles efficiencies are calculated using several methods, such as Simplified Analysis, Converse-Labare [1][2], Los Angeles Group, Seiler - Keeney, Das, and Sayed - Baker. In order to calculate the groups of piles capacities, the capacities of single piles are needed. The singles piles capacities are taken from graphical method proposed by Djarwanti et al. (2015a and 2015b). Three graphical methods utilized are derived from the Briaud et al. (1985) , Reese and Wright (1977), and Reese O’Neill method. Moreover, the proposed graphical method is applied in the case study. The case study takes palace in Graha Indoland Condotel Inside Yogyakarta Construction Project.The pile efficiency graph is recommended for this research since the value of pile efficiency could be easily taken. The value of pile efficiency for Graha Indoland Condotel Inside using Simplified Analysis, Converse - Labare, Los Angeles Group, Seiler – Keeney, Das, and Sayed – Baker are 1,75; 0,89; 0,94; 0,99; 4,00; 1,56 respectively. Meanwhile the value of pile group capacity with the value of pile group efficiency more than 1, showed that the pile group capacity based on the efficiency is bigger than the one based on single down pattern.
