Project Location: Memphis, Tennessee
Client: Reuss & Associates; Clearwater, Florida
Dates: 1989

Associates of LCR&A were requested to review the design of the pile foundations for the subject project. The soil profiles were analyzed and a number of typical categories were selected. Studies that were carried out included the behavior of piles under short-term axial loading and under sustained loading. Also, procedures were proposed for the behavior of pile groups under lateral loading. The computer program GROUP1, developed by Ensoft, Inc., was used in making the computations, and a report was prepared giving results of the study.
