Overview: UK Consulting Engineers Scott Wilson are using LUSAS Civil & Structural on two projects in Southern Asia to evaluate recent amendments to the code Eurocode 8 (EC8). 2D and 3D LUSAS models of the superstructure with different foundation conditions were investigated and a model with rigid column bases was used as a reference for 4 other design models. These included: a piled raft with 20m long piles laterally supported at the pile tip only, a piled raft with the lateral stiffness of the soil around the piles included, and a variation on both these models allowing for vertical flexibility between the piles.
