Linear Modulus of Subsoil Reaction

The modulus of subsoil reaction at a depth z is given by the equation:

where:

d

-

pile diameter [m]

l

-

length of the pile [m]

k

-

soil parameter (modulus) according to Bowles [MN/m3]

r

-

reduced width of the pile [m], which is given by the equation:

where:

d

-

pile diameter [m]

β

-

angle of dispersion - is input with respect to the angle of internal friction in the range of φ/4 to φ

A representative range of values of lateral modulus k [MN/m3] according to Bowles (for piles up to 500 mm diameter):

dense sandy gravel

220 - 400

medium dense gravel

155 - 300

medium-graded sand

110 - 280

fine sand

80 - 200

stiff clay

60 - 220

saturated stiff clay

30 - 110

plastic clay

40 - 140

saturated plastic clay

10 - 80

soft clay

2 - 40
