Bearing capacity of a bent pile

The objective of this dissertation is to study the various parameters that affect the behaviour of a bent pile. This has been achieved by performing a parametric study on a bent pile made up of a two linear segments; i.e. an upper, vertical segment follow by an inclined, lower segment. The bend is d...
