Foundations of wind turbines, bridges, offshore platforms, industrial chimneys, retaining
structures, marine and harbor structures etc. can be loaded with significant horizontal loads from
various sources. Appropriate assessment of the foundations capacity of these structures is
necessary, especially when these structures are supported by pile groups. The horizontal loading
on the pile group may have arbitrary direction. This paper addresses some important aspects of
FEM numerical modeling of a bored pile group under arbitrary horizontal loading. Model
parameters, validation and post-processing techniques are presented and discussed. The full 3D
FEM model was found to be necessary for the correct problem solution.
