Excel For ALLpile

This document describes ALPAXL, an analysis tool for axially loaded piles developed by Hoyoung Seo under the guidance of Professor Monica Prezzi. It allows the user to input pile geometry, soil properties, and applied load and outputs the pile head and base settlements, base load, and soil displacement around the pile. The tool analyzes circular piles within multiple soil layers and below the ground surface using an iterative method.
