Hello! I would like to know how to create a C profile. When I try to create I do the following: Model_pile_General Pile_C channels and I describe the width, Inertia and E. However, when I go to check the displacements, I see the image of the section and it seems to be round. So, I cannot ensure that I have created it properly.
Other question that I have, is there a maximum recommended p-multiplier? sometimes when I use the geotechnical parameters provided in the geotechnical report, the displacement at ground level is much higher than the value obtained in a real static-loading test campaign. In that case I need to use a p-multiplier huge to adjust the soil behavior.
This is going to be your judgment. Possibly the parameters from the geotechnical report are not reasonable.
Hi, thanks for your response! Yes, that is what I think. I have more confidence on test results onsite.
Hi Samuel, what you have done is correct. You can also select C Channels from Pile Class and then select a specific Pile Type. You can edit the spreadsheet to add your own pile data. It shows a round section since the pile is general and the pile could be with any types of cross sections. The parameters required are width, E and I.
Perfect Yong, all clear. Thank you so much!
Hi, Yong, can you supplement the PyPile program with report forming window. Usually in pile calculation report there is all entered data about the pile (length, diameter, reinforcement, kind of concrete, kind of reinforement stell, steel pile wall thickness and etc.) and calculation result report. Currently it is possible to get only graphs for calculation report and make print screens of data entrance windows.
Will do.
Hi, Yong, how can I calculate the pile with different diameter? I want to model pile that top part is retained to horizontal larger plate.
Hi Kestas, you used the finned pile option in the pile dialog.
Hi Yong, im student from a civil engineering masters degree, Is it possible to activate an academic license? Thank you so much.
Hi Benjamin, can you please email me some information indicating you are currently a student in University. Please also forward me your serial number.
Hi Yong, I’m a professor in an University and I was wondering how could I access to the academic free license.
Regards.
Hello Professor, please forward me your webpage and the program serial number so that I can activate your license.
I am looking to purchase the full version of the PyPile software. However, my trial license expired and i cannot access the program to get my serial number. Is there another way that I can access my serial number so I can complete purchasing the program?
Hi Paul, please download the latest version. You can find the serial number on the About dialog.
Hi! we are having some difficulties to use the “custom soil by curve”. Is there a particular way of how the inputs need to be used? let’s say, we have:
P= [0 10 22 30 44] kN/m
y = [0 5 10 15 20] mm
how this values shall be introduced to the “Costom soil by curve” input table?
Many thanks!
Hi Rodrigo, you can enter 0, 10, 22, 30, 44 for P0 and 0, 10, 22, 30, 44 for P1 and 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 for y. You can also enter different curves for P0 and P1. The curves used for calculation will be linearly interpolated between P0 and P1.
