Laterally loaded pile groups

Hi, I am Ramy, I am about to perform some analyses on laterally loaded pile groups in sandy soils, does anyone have any idea about the best constitutive model to use?, loading is static. And I am using PLaxis 3D foundations version 2.1 Regards, Ramy

I'm not exactly sure.  But here are some suggested constitutive models for you to investigate.

Drucker-Prager

Cam-Clay

Dafalias Manzari (seems like this is for sand)

 Although, it looks like plaxis 3d only allows the mohr coulomb model, in which case you don't have a choice??

Hi Rami,

I think Cam-Clay is more suitable for Clay soils. Try Mohr-Coulomb too.
