Question

Calculate the difference between C1 & C2 pile capacity, considering the borehole data plot.

The tender is based on 600mm piles being adopted for the whole of the project, if feasible. It is
proposed that 3% of all piles will undergo working pile tests.
To enable the piles, within the basement, to be installed following excavation, segmental flight auger
(SFA) piles will be used with a maximum pile length of 12.1m being installed from a temporary formation
level of 16.42mAOD
The cut off level of the piles is 14.53mAOD & the top level of the stiff CLAY is considered to be
5.7mAOD.
The total effective stress due to the structure at cut off level is 249kPa considering the water table to be
at ground level.
u (grey clay)
=214kN/m²
Ysub(grey clay) =13kN/m³
Ysub(stiff clay)
=10kN/m³
