Pile foundations are crucial for structures such as bridges, high-rise buildings, and wharves in weak soil, where fine-grained soils exhibit high shaft friction and low-end-bearing resistance, while coarse soils exhibit the opposite characteristics. Determining both lateral and axial capacities is vital due to various sources of lateral loads alongside axial loads. This paper investigates the behavior of vertical single pile subjected to both axial and lateral loads in layered soil conditions, utilizing GEO5 software alongside field data. It aims to correlate the lateral and axial load capacities of vertical piles according to IS code IS2911 Part 1 (Sec 2), comparing the results with software analyses. The study considers various length-to-diameter ratios (L/D) and fixed-head pile conditions, examining both cohesive and cohesionless soil scenarios. Increasing pile diameter with constant length enhances load capacities and lateral deflection, highlighting differences between IS 2911 Part 1 (Sec 2) and Geo5 software, while altering pile length with constant diameter affects axial load capacity and maintains consistent lateral load capacity on sand and clay.
