What is a good methodology to compute differential settlement in pile groups?

05 May 2016 1 4K Report

I am interested both in rectangular forms and in piles placed in random positions.

Some simple method to work out the differential settlement may not able to adequately address this issue since this is related to the behaviour of pile groups. You may consider to use 3-D finite element method and the results will give you settlements at various sections in order to assess the differential settlement concerned.
