Batter Augercast Piles under Settling Embankment
Batter Augercast Piles under Settling Embankment
(OP)
It is understood that an augercast pile installed at a batter beneath a recently constructed embankment that is causing long-term consolidation of the subsoils will develop moments along the pile shaft. My question is if anyone is aware of any academic or research studies documenting this behavior and quantifying moment development at depth?

Apart from that it occurs to me you could consider active push from the tall part and null passive resistance from a degraded downward's slope of the embankment. So, just the total active push of the upper part on all the piles if the piles are together enough, or of 3 times the diameter the width of each on the particular pile if sparsely populated. This was the approach taken by former spanish code for loads on buildings NBE AE-88.
