RS4500.337 LATERAL DEFLECTION ANALYSIS FOR SEISMIC DESIGN CATEGORIES D, E, & F: The free-headed pile lateral move ments at allowable loads (lateral only – no vertical) of Chance® Type RS4500.337 helical piles can be determined from the following table.

∆ = y t

P h = Allowable lateral load L = Pile length y t = Δ = Lateral drift of pile head H = Length from pile head to groundline D o = Depth along pile shaft to point of first zero-deflection point. (y t = 0), a.k.a. the flexural length of pile h = Depth along pile shaft to point of zero slope (S t = 0) M = Bending moment in pile shaft

DRAWINGS & RATINGS

For lateral resistance in non-seismic areas, special analysis and tests of RS4500.337 helical piles indicate allowable lateral load with less than 1/2” lateral deflection in stiff, firm, and soft soils. Test and analysis data are listed in the table. Per AC358 1.4.7, the Shaft Flexural Length (D o ) is measured from the top of the pile down to the first point of zero lateral deflection in the soil. AC358 1.4.8 defines the Shaft Seismic Flexural Length (Seismic D o ) as 120% of the Shaft Flexural Length, which for RS4500.337 helical piles embedded in stiff, firm, and soft soils is 6.4 ft, 6.7 ft, and 10 ft respectively.

All shaft, coupler, and bracket-tube shapes and materials have been checked for adequate ductility per AC358 3.14.3; AISC 341 Table D1.1 (including applicable footnotes); and IBC 1810.3.6.1. Lateral deflections during seismic loading should be checked against the ASCE-7 Table 12.12-1 (reproduced below) showing Allowable Story Drift values for various structure lateral load resistance system types that are presented as ratios of the story height in Seismic Design Categories D, E, and F. The story height (h) assumed for the helical pile is the depth from the pile top down to the point of zero pile slope-from-vertical in the soil (S t ). The Allowable Story Drift in the seismic loading table above must be less than or equal to the Allowable Story Drift in Table 12.12.1 in order to determine if RS4500.337 helical piles can be used in that Structure Type and Risk Category.
