PDR Method For Piled Raft Foundation (Primary Assessment Only)

This document provides input parameters and output for analyzing a piled raft foundation using the PDR method. It includes soil properties, raft and pile properties, and calculates the raft spring stiffness, pile group spring stiffness using two methods, the interaction factor, overall piled raft spring stiffness, load sharing between the raft and piles, and settlement. The piled raft foundation is designed to support a total applied load of 780 MN.
