This paper presents the implementation into the open-source finite element simulation framework OpenSees of the new Unified CPT-based method for driven piles in sands. The formulation incorporates the maximum skin friction and endbearing CPT values based on the new ISO-19901-4 under development, within the non-linear load-transfer curves calibrated against the measured responses from the static pile tests in the unified database. Special attention was paid to maintaining an open-source philosophy during the implementation. The important EURIPIDES research tests in highly dense sands are considered as a worked example to illustrate the application of the implemented method. The numerical benchmark shows good agreement between the model and full-scale measurements.
