Model Testing of Rock-Socketed Piles under Combined Vertical–Lateral Loading
This paper presents the findings from a model experimental setup designed and fabricated for conducting single gravity (1-g) model experiments on model aluminum instrumented piles embedded
in synthetic rock subjected to both independent vertical–compressive and lateral loading and combined vertical–compressive and lateral loading. Synthetic rock was prepared based on a mix design that can simulate the strength and modulus of soft rocks. Model tests were
carried out on single piles of different socketing lengths (L/D ratios: 6, 9, and 12). Combined loading tests were done such that the resultant of the vertical–compressive and lateral loads was at constant inclinations (30° and 60°).
