In this article, the distribution of plastic hinge model is adopted to simulate the elastic and plastic of pile body, p-y curve is used to simulate resistance of pile foundation soil. We do static non-linear pushover analysis of the single pile of pile foundations, and research the influence of the axial compressive ratio η of pile shaft, longitudinal reinforcement rate ρ of section, stirrup ratio µof section and shear strength C of foundation soil to the system-interaction of pile and soil. The result shows that axial compressive ratio of pile shaft has a significant influence on horizontal limit bearing capacity and the displacement ductility of the system. With the increase of the axial compressive ratio, system of the displacement ductility reduces gradually, but the limit bearing capacity increases gradually. Under a horizontal load, the order and the mechanism of plastic hinge are obviously different because of different axial compressive ratio of pile shaft，This analysis method may further provide a reference for nonlinear seismic analysis of pile bents.
