The loads on structures should be supported either horizontally or laterally or in both directions and most structures have in common that they are founded on piles. To create solid foundations, the pile designer is driven towards finding the critical load on a certain structure, either by causing overloaded or by causing too much lateral deflection. This third edition of Single Piles and Pile Groups Under Lateral Loading explores and explains design and analysis procedures for laterally loaded piles and pile groups, accounting for the nonlinear soil resistance, as related to the lateral deflection of the pile. It addresses the analysis of piles of varying stiffness installed into soils and rock formations with a variety of characteristics, accounting for the axial load at the top of the pile and for the rotational restrain of the pile head. The presented method using load-transfer functions is currently applied in practice by thousands of engineering offices in the world. Moreover, various experimental case design examples are given to complement theory. The rich list
