The results are promising, showing for example that uplift loads of 40% of the peak undrained capacity were maintained for up to two years without significant foundation displacement when an intact foundation-soil interface was maintained. However, they also reveal that the presence...

... of the axial capacity of open-ended piles in sand. Methods, such as the Imperial College Pile (ICP) and the University of Western Australia (UWA-05), estimate the medium-term capacity of piles at relatively large displacements (typically 10% of the pile diameter). To use these approaches in pile driveability...

The lateral resistance is expected to increase when using batter piles instead of vertical piles because of the effect of pile inclination. Part of the applied lateral load will be transferred to axial loads on batter piles. In addition...
