Computer-Aided Structural Engineering (CASE) Project. User's Guide: Pile Group Analysis (CPGA) Computer Program

Abstract

A computer program for basic pile group analysis, CPGA, was developed through the Computer-Aided Structural Engineering (CASE) Project by the Task Group on Pile Structures and Substructures. It is intended to be a simple program for pile group analysis to eliminate many of the inaccuracies inherent in hand analysis methods. The program assumes the pile cap to be rigid and the piles to be linearly elastic. Soil resistance to pile movement may be included. This technical report includes material as a user's manual in Part I and theoretical and background material in Part II.
