What is Pile Design for Expansive Soils about?
This document discusses the analysis and design of piles subjected to lateral soil movements. It presents theoretical solutions and design charts that can be used to estimate pile response, including head movement, bending moment, and deflection. As an example, it analyzes a case study where instrumented piles were used to stabilize a sliding slope. The key aspects addressed are estimating free field soil movements, assuming elastic or plastic soil behavior, and accounting for factors like soil properties,
