Experimental–Numerical Analysis of the Ultimate Lateral Capacity of PHC Piles
This study investigates the ultimate lateral behavior of prestressed high-strength concrete (PHC) piles in layered ground conditions at a thermal power plant site in Nhon Trach, Vietnam. Full-scale free-head lateral load tests were conducted on single PHC piles with diameters of 300, 400, and 500 mm, and the measured l...
