Pile Analysis Software?

[apd139]

Anyone know of some really good, easy-to-use pile analysis software? I am looking for a program to do mostly lateral load analysis; giving deflections, moments and so forth for varying soil layers and such. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Lateral analysis of single piles is easily done with L-Pile. The only "trick" to it is paying attention to the units used when inputing the material properties of the piles - it uses some odd values.

We just started using AllPile from CivilTech software. For us, it is easier to use than LPile, which was temperamental on our computer. So far, we are pretty satisfied with AllPile. It is Windows-based and user-friendly, and provides axial and lateral pile analysis.
