Group efficiency of a pile refers to the ratio of the load-carrying capacity of a group of piles to the sum of the individual capacities of the piles in that group. It accounts for the interaction between piles, as the behavior of one pile can affect the performance of others nearby. Typically, group efficiency decreases as the number of piles increases due to factors like soil interference and reduced effective stress. Understanding group efficiency is crucial for optimizing pile design in construction projects.
