ANALYSIS OF PILE FOUNDATION BEHAVIOUR FOR VARIOUS SOIL CONDITION

Pile foundation is used to transfer the ultimate load from the structure to the foundation from soft soil strata to hard soil or rock. FEA model developed to predict the response of pile in static and nonlinear dynamic analysis of pile foundation in layered soil medium based on field data. In the first step static analysis will be performed which were compared and validated with the analytical result. Pile foundation are carried for the various soil condition in order to prove its efficiency in the soil systems. Numerical analysis has been carried out using FEA (NASTRAN) software, which will be used to give loaddisplacement, stresses and response at pile. 20 node 3D element used to model the pile, biased meshing will be used toward the pile to produce accurate result in the region of interest. These stresses on the pile will be predicted using the finite element method. FE methodology is more precise in predicting the strength of the piles and foundations.
