Abstract

The present study focus on the investigation ofthe response of single pile when subjected to both axial and lateral loads simultaneously in dense sand. To study this issue, laboratory model was locally improved to examine the piles under this kind of loading. The dense sand provided using raining technique. The slenderness ratio of the tested pile is ( L/D=45). On the other hand, the vertical and horizontal loads are divided into 5 stages to assess the influence of load intensities on the lateral pile response. It can be concluded that the lateral pile response is affected by changing the load intensities
