Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move evaluator uses Lateral Deflection = ((Coefficient Ay*Laterally Applied Load*(Characteristic Pile Length^3))/Stiffness of Pile)+((Coefficient By*Moment in Soil*(Characteristic Pile Length^2))/Stiffness of Pile) to evaluate the Lateral Deflection, The Lateral Deflection of Pile with Head Free to Move formula is defined as the horizontal displacement experienced by a pile when the top of the pile is not restrained laterally and is free to move horizontally. In geotechnical engineering, piles are often subjected to lateral forces due to various factors such as wind loads, earth pressure, or seismic forces. Lateral Deflection is denoted by y symbol.
