Some simplified design methods were proposed to predict behavior of lateral loaded piled-raft foundations on homogenous soil. One of them is the cone model method. However, only one average solution of pile behavior can be given by this method. It can’t evaluate the location factors of piles. Therefore, this paper describes a new simplified method to predict behavior of lateral loaded piled raft foundations covering the location factor of piles. At first, ground surface displacement is derived theoretically by Cerutti’s solution, then assuming that the raft foundation has rigid stiffness, these displacements are the same to calculation lateral loading distribution. Second, the ground displacement where pile placed could be estimated under calculated lateral loading. Third, the piles behavior are evaluated based on these lateral ground displacements. In addition, 3-D FEM numerical analysis were performed to compared with these solutions.

A piled raft foundation consists of a thick concrete slab reinforced with steel which covers the entire contact area of the structure, in which the raft is supported by a group of piles or a number of individual piles. Bending moment on raft, differential and average settlement, pile and raft geometries are the influencing parameters of the piled raft foundation system. In this paper, a detailed review has been carried out on the issues on the raft foundation design. Also, the existing design procedure was explained.

The introduction of Eurocode in Kazakhstan allows for the application of modern technological innovations and the elimination of technical barriers for the realization of international projects. It is significant to study the international standards and design requirements provided in Eurocode. This study presents a comparative analysis of Kazakhstani and European approaches for the geotechnical design of foundations and provides the design methods in the considered codes of practice. Three different types of foundations (i.e., raft, pile, and piled raft foundations) were designed following SP RK 5.01-102-2013—Foundations of buildings and structures, SP RK 5.01-103-2013—Pile foundations, and Eurocode 7: Geotechnical design for the Nur-Sultan soil profile. For all three types of foundations, the calculated results of bearing resistance and elastic settlement showed the conservativeness of Eurocode over SNiP-based Kazakhstani building regulations, as the values of bearing resistance and elastic settlement adhering to Kazakhstani code exceeded the Eurocode values. The difference between the obtained results can be explained by the application of higher values of partial safety factors by Eurocode 7. Sensitivity analysis of the bearing resistance on foundation parameters (i.e., raft foundation width and pile length) for the Kazakhstani and European approaches was performed to support the conclusions of the study.
