Batter piles are used when the foundation structure is exposed to a considerable amount ofrnlateral loads to support super structure safely. The behavior of batter piles had for many yearsrnbeen studied by performing laboratory tests. The difficulty of modeling the pile soilinteractionrnrnin the laboratory is assisted by numerical modeling/finite element/, which isrnincreasingly gaining more acceptance and application. Besides, of laboratory and field tests,rnfinite element method used increasingly to deal with this problem. rnIn this paper, the behavior of a batter and vertical pile subjected to lateral, axial and inclinedrnloads are modeled with finite element software. The paper attempts to examine the effect ofrnbatter angle on its ultimate lateral and axial load carrying capacity. The overall response ofrnvertical and batter pile subjected to lateral, vertical and inclined loads are investigated.rnNegative and positive batters inclined at angles ranging from 30rn0 rn0rnto -30rn are simulated using rnthe validated software PLAXIS 3D. The results showed that small inclination angle of pilesrngive better resistance than vertical piles especially for lateral loads. From the analysis of arnsingle pile, it is found that negative batter piles have more resistance than positive piles. For arnspecified pile property, batter piles inclined at -20rn0rn and subjected to lateral loads have more rncapacity to resist applied loads than vertical piles subjected to the same magnitude of lateralrnloads. The equivalent behavior of vertical pile is observed clearly from the analysis result.rnThis shows batter piles inclined at 20rn0rn have more capacity and it is similar to vertical piles rn0rnwith that of 20rn inclined load from the vertical. Batter piles subjected to vertical loads show rncontinuous reduction in ultimate capacity for both negative and positive batter piles. Negativernbatter pile deformation reduced by 8.25 %, 2.11 % and 19.4 % for lateral, vertical andrntransverse components respectively for similar geometry, property of materials and equalrnmagnitude of loads.
