Allowable Resistance Available (RA) = Exist. Cap. (1+Cs + Cb + He + Pe + Pl + Sm ) Increase
& Setup
RA = 30 ( 1 + 0+ 0.06 + 0+ 0.04 + 0.02 + 0.04 ) = 16%

RA = 30 (1.16)

RA = 34.8 TONS Service Capacity

Nominal or Ultimate Pile Bearing (RN) = 209 kips

Factored Resistance Available (RF) = RN x 0.5 Reistance factor

RF = 104 KIPS Factored Resistance
