ABSTRACT
Based on dimensional analysis the following non-dimensional groups have been established for piles in sand and clay.
n pl/3 (EI)yl/3 F = h e and F
where CifJ =correction factor for the angle of friction l/J. The expression for CifJ has been found separately based on a critical study of the available data. The expression for CifJ is
Fig. 16.11 gives a plot of CifJ versus l/J.
