Experimental and numerical study of the behaviour of piles subjected to lateral soil movement

Experimental and numerical studies were carried out on the behaviour of piles in soft clay when subjected to lateral forces induced by horizontal soil movements from nearby construction activities such as deep excavations, tunnelling and approach embankments. The main objective of this study was to...
