Evaluation of failure mechanism of pile under pullout test in loose sand by PIV method
In order to ensure safe design of structures we need to study on behavior of structure’s components before and after failing. Consequences effects of failing are important in some structural cases. For instance, piles as a member of structures can be failed because of structural collapses or soil’s...

In order to ensure safe design of structures we need to study on behavior of structure’s components before and after failing. Consequences effects of failing are important in some structural cases. For instance, piles as a member of structures can be failed because of structural collapses or soil’s body failure. Extensive experimental investigations have been carried out to study the behavior of failure mechanism of piles in sand subjected to axial compressive, inclined, or lateral loads.
