Horizontal limit capacity

The horizontal limit capacity is evaluated for cohesive soils and non-cohesive soils.

 

Cohesive soils:

 

Piles not bound to head rotation - short pile breaking mechanism:

Piles not bound to head rotation - long pile breaking mechanism:

Piles  bound to head rotation - short pile breaking mechanism:

Piles  bound to head rotation - long pile breaking mechanism:

 

 

Non-cohesive soils:

 

Piles not bound to head rotation - short pile breaking mechanism:

Piles not bound to head rotation - long pile breaking mechanism:

 

In this case, it is necessary to solve the following third-degree equation in Hlim:

Piles  bound to head rotation - short pile breaking mechanism:

Piles  bound to head rotation - long pile breaking mechanism:

For the meaning of the symbols, it is advisable to refer to the "Micro-piles Input" and "Yield Moment Calculation" sections.
