HYPERBOLIC P-Y MODEL FOR STATIC AND CYCLIC LATERAL LOADING DERIVED FROM FULL-SCALE LATERAL LOAD TESTING IN CEMENTED LOESS SOILS (2011)

A new hyperbolic model for generating P-Y curves is developed for use in lateral analyses of cemented soils (a C-φ soil with both cohesive intercept and friction angle), and includes degradation of the static loading soil response to model the effects of load cycling (repeated loading) with load cycle number. The p-y curves, for both static and cyclic loading, were derived from full-scale lateral test results conducted on a set of six drilled shafts in a loess deposit at the Kansas DOT test site.
