Selection of Pile-Soil Model.(if guven not required as in
question given)
Selection of Pile Structure Model:-The selection of the pile-
structure model for analysis and design of a pile-founded structure
must con- sider the following three critical items:. Type of
structure (concrete or steel). Type of analysis (rigid or flexible
base). Pile-head fixity (fixed, pinned, or partially fixed)
Selection of Load Cases.( if given not required as in question
given)
Selection of Design Criteria.
Deformations. The pile stiffnesses in the lateral and axial
directions is determined by a nonlinear analysis assuming a
limiting deformation.
