The structural behavior of pile caps with sockets embedded is influenced by interface of column-socket, which can be smooth or rough. With intent to analyzer the behavior of two pile caps with embedded socket, considering the friction between the column and the socket, subjected to horizontal force, the numerical simulations were carried out, using a program based on the Finite Element Methods (FEM). In the numerical analysis the non-linear behavior of materials was considered, also the friction between the column and the socket. It was considered perfect bond between the reinforcement and the concrete around. It was observed that the embedded length is preponderant factor in the structural behavior of the analyzed element.
