<p>This paper presents a methodology for designing side slope liner systems to accommodate downdrag due to waste settlement. Settlement and downdrag along steep-lined slopes in landfills and other waste or mining containment facilities (e.g. heap leach pads, ...

The design problem of piles is to address not the drag load but the location of the neutral plane and the settlement of the soil at the neutral plane.

Design of piles requires understanding of how load is transferred from pile to soil and, less obvious but equally important, from soil to pile.

A unified design of piles and pile groups is proposed where in capacity, residual compression, negative skin friction and settlement are related.

In this paper the results are given from 43 months of measurements of forces and bending moments on two instrumented precast piles driven through 40m of soft clay and 15m into underlying silt and sand.
