The pressuremeter is ideally suitable for determining the in-situ non-linear parameters for the design of laterally loaded piles. A method for designing laterally loaded piles using presuremeter data is presented. For driven displacement piles, which are commonly used offshore, the pressuremeter can be pushed into the soil in a similar full-displacement manner. Several case histories are presented to illustrate the proposed method.
