Abstract: The finite element method, along with an elastoplastic constitutive model, is used to investigate the response of laterally loaded single pile and (2×2) square pile groups in sand. Also, a real practical problem of an on-shore container yard in Um Qaser Port-Basra Province is solved. ABAQUS finite element program is used to analyze the behavior of single pile and (2×2) square pile groups. The pile and the soil around the pile are modeled by three-dimensional brick elements. The pile is modeled as a deformable body with linear elastic material properties, while the soil is modeled as an elasto-plastic Mohr-Columb model continuum material. The software is verified against field load-test measurements and its efficiency is assessed. Successful comparisons between the predicted and measured behaviors are obtained. The effect of pile-soil-pile interaction (group action) is investigated by studying the effect of pile spacing on the behavior (2×2) square pile groups. The lateral pressure dist

Abstract: The main function of the accounting system is to encourage optimal as possible so that the system can generate a variety of structured accounting information that is timely, relevant, and trustworthy. The elements contained in an accounting system are related to each other, so do the data processing from the initial transaction to reporting that can be used as accounting information. The accounting system for the contractor depends on the condition of each contractor and characteristics of projects handled. The accounting system and its relation with Earned Value Management (EVM) started from the project planning phase to the control of the project implementation. The accounting system used to process all transactions that occur both inside and outside the project. Project accounting system is part of a project control. The accounting system is used primarily to obtain data ACWP and BCWP used for the calculation of the performance with the concept of earned value. While Managerial Acco
