How to Calculate Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move?
Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move calculator uses Lateral Deflection = ((Coefficient Ay*Laterally Applied Load*(Characteristic Pile Length^3))/Stiffness of Pile)+((Coefficient By*Moment in Soil*(Characteristic Pile Length^2))/Stiffness of Pile) to calculate the Lateral Deflection, The Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move formula is defined as the horizontal displacement experienced by a pile when the top of the pile is not restrained laterally and is free to move horizontally. In geotechnical engineering, piles are often subjected to lateral forces due to various factors such as wind loads, earth pressure, or seismic forces. Lateral Deflection is denoted by y symbol.
How to calculate Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move, enter Coefficient Ay (Ay), Laterally Applied Load (Ph), Characteristic Pile Length (T), Stiffness of Pile (EI), Coefficient By (By) & Moment in Soil (Mt) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move calculation can be explained with given input values -> 30.79209 = ((2.01*9.32*(1.746^3))/12)+((1.5*59*(1.746^2))/12).
