LATERAL LOADING ON PILES COM624P
LATERAL LOADING ON PILES COM624P
(OP)
Anyone who had used COM624P software, knows that at some point the user needs to define the boundary condition code (KBC).
For a case that I'm working on right now, what do you think will be the best appropriate KBC condition?
A micropile installed on the crest of a slope for the stabilization of an existing concrete slab. The concrete slab is used as a parking lot, and currently is deflecting due to erosion underneath the foundation. The purpose of the micropile is to hold the concrete slab, a concrete bean will be used as the connection between the slab and the pile head, but there will be at least 5 to 6 feet of the length of the pile that will be off the ground. Length of penetration estimated so far is 40 ft deep.
