Piles are structural elements which play an important role to carry loads and transfer them to the ground. In a jetty structure, the critical lateral loads supported by piles are mostly from Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) vessels. This research investigates various pile configuration such as pile diameter (40 cm, 60 cm, and 80 cm), distance between pile (2,5 m and 5 m), and the slope of the pile (straight pile and sloping pile with the ratio 1:8). A series of analysis has been conducted using SAP 2000 program. The analysis results show that a smaller pile deflection can be obtained if a large diameter pile is used, distance between piles is 2.5 m, and the type of piles being installed is a sloping pile.
