A model was developed to represent single piles embedded in cohesive soil deposits using the Ruaumoko analysis program, utilizing the available capabilities and modifications of existing elements. The non-linearity of both the soil and the pile was able to be represented within the model in order…

This paper presents the development and response of a Ruaumoko model for the representation of uplift and reattachment of a shallow foundation. The vertical load in the foundation is used to control the characteristics of moment and shear loads, as these values must reduce to zero when…
