Pile fundation in RFEM 6

What are the options for modeling driven piles in RFEM 6?

Hi Vasily,

To model a driven pile, you can use a member of the 'pile' member type. Please check out the following Knowledge Base article, where you should find all the information you need:

If you have any more questions, feel free to reach out. :blush:

In this case, when the pile is driven (without taking into account the pile's own weight and without any load on the pile), a thrust force should arise from the volume of soil displaced by the pile. But this is not the case.

Dear Василий,

to discuss your problem, it would be helpful to provide more information – at best from the beginning.
