BENDING AND BUCKLING OF PARTIALLY EMBEDDED PILES

AN APPROXIMATE PROCEDURE IS DEVELOPED FOR TREATING THE PROBLEM OF BENDING AND BUCKLING OF PARTIALLY EMBEDDED PILES. THE PROCEDURE WAS DEVELOPED WITH THE USE OF THEORETICALLY CORRECT SOLUTIONS APPLICABLE TO A PARTIALLY EMBEDDED PILE SUBJECTED TO MOMENT, SHEAR, AND AXIAL LOADS, WHEN ACTING SEPARATELY. IT IS SHOWN THAT A PARTIALLY EMBEDDED PILE MAY BE REPRESENTED AS A FREE-STANDING PILE WITH A FIXED BASE AT A DEPTH BELOW THE GROUND SURFACE EQUAL TO A RELATIONSHIP WHICH INVOLVES SUBGRADE MODULUS CONSTANT WITH DEPTH AND ONE INVOLVING SUBGRADE MODULUS INCREASING LINEARLY WITH DEPTH. /LCPC/RRL/A/
