ESTIMATE PILE CAPACITIES

(Using SPT value from borehole results)
METER STATION
Type of pile : 150 x 150mm reinforced concrete pile
pilecap

Ultimate Pile Capacity = End bearing + Skin friction fill

Qult = Qb + Qs
150x150 R.C PILE
Skin Friction, Qs = fs . As .L

End Bearing, Qb = fb . Ab

Unit skin friction fs = N in ton / m^2 =< f1 = 10 ton/m^2

3 or 5 ( sand or clay)

Unit base resistance fb = 0.4 x N x D in ton /m^2 =< q1 = 40N for sand
B = 30N for silt fs
where : = 10N for clay
N = avg. SPT value from borelogs
B = width or diameter of pile = 0.15 m
L or D = depth of pile penetration into soil layer
Ab = area of base pile = 0.023 m^2
As = surface area of embed. length = 0.600 m^2
fb
fn = unit negative skin friction = 0.8 ton/m^2
Negative skin friction = fn x As x L

Take depth of pile = 40.5 m ( From existing ground level)

Ultimate Pile Capacity, Qult = 4.05 ton < 65 ton i.e 2.5 * Qstr. O.K

Allowable Load = Qult = 1.62 ton

F.S

For backfill platform,

Height of fill = 1.7 m
Pile Bearing Capacity = Allow. Load - neg. skin friction
= Qult - fn x As x L

Therefore,
Total pile length required = 42 m
