The end fallouts show that the BM & SF, which were drawn from the experimental examination, showed
large drop with the reduction of rigidity of plinth beam. The explanation for the effect of the rigidity of the
plinth beam on a building frame supported on a group of piles embedded in sandy soils by the result of
static vertical load tests3
. The effect of the rigidity of plinth beam on displacements and rotation at the
column base and also shears and bending moments in the building frame were investigated. In the
analytical model, soil nonlinearity in the axial stated that stretchy pile caps laterally with rigidity must be
measured and stiffness matrix of substructure needs to be drawn out by consideration of all the piles in a
single group and also gave the explanation for a single-storeyed and two bayed space frame resting on
group of piles with flexible cap by resorting to more rational approach and realistic assumptions4-6

has been presented on pile foundation (single pile or pile group) and most of the work dealt with the
analysis of a framed construction, which rests on the pile groups, and the explanation intended for SSI and
group piles are exposed to lateral loads by using the ‘P-Y’ Curve8-11
.
2. OBJECTIVES
The main objective of the work is to analyze a framed structure supported on pile group embedded in
multilayered soil considering Soil Structure Interaction (SSI) and compare the same with a structure
analyzed without considering SSI.
1. Deriving the p-y curves as per the soil considered and by using the obtained values analyzing the
structure in ANSYS.
2. Obtain BM, Deflection and SFD for the structure considered and comparing the obtained results with a
structure analyzed with and without considering SSI.
3. METHODOLOGY
Bearing capacity is a major factor to be considered for a structure to withstand on a particular soil. So, my
experimental investigation takes me to identify Structural behavior (Shear force, Bending Moment and
Deflection) on different types of multilayered soils like Clayey soil and Sandy Soil to interact and compare
with non-interaction of soil.
3.1. Derivation of P-Y Curve
P-Y curves for sandy soil and clayey soil are derived using Matlock equations and API equations.
