Is anyone aware of a good reference for the analysis of pile groups that include battered piles to resist lateral loads.
A member of DFI has indicated that all that is required is to select the piles required to resist the vertical loads and then add the battered piles required to resist the lateral loads.
This seems too simplistic. It does not appear to account for any vertical load that might be resisted by the battered piles or other interaction effects.
Thanks for your asisitance.
