It will be really helpful if you can help me in understanding behaviour of laterally loaded piles on the revetments on the seashore (some will be embedded in revetment fully and some are on the revetment slopes). I tried looking for some literature but failed in getting any. I was thinking if I should consider the support on the pile from the revetment material i.e. the rock core material (0-100kg). It will provide lateral resistance to the piles for sure but how can I use that number in my design? Please recommend/suggest something.
I am trying to model it using LPile.

Thanks!
 
I've done this (using LPile also) but I always had the force trapezoids furnished by the geotech.
