ABSTRACT: This paper investigates the probabilistic nature of differential settlement between two identical piles founded in a spatially variable linearly elastic soil. A theoretical model is developed, and validated by simulation, which is then used to calculate the probability of excessive differential settlement. The theoretical model can be employed in the design of individual piles to avoid excessive differential settlements.
RÉSUMÉ: Cet article étudie la nature probabiliste de tassement différentiel entre deux pieux identiques foncés dans un sol élastique linéaire spatialement variable. Un modèle théorique est développé et validé par simulation et celui-ci est utilisé pour calculer la probabilité de tassement différentiel excessif. Ce modèle théorique est applicable lors de la conception de pieux individuels afin d™éviter un tassement différentiel excessif.
