5. A 40 m-long precast concrete pile with a diameter of 0.3 m is driven into a thick, dry sand layer. The unit weight of
the sand is 16.8 kN/m³. The sand is cohesionless and has an effective friction angle of 35°. Estimate the ultimate
bearing capacity by using Meyerhof's method for both the point bearing resistance, Qp, and the side resistance Qs
(K 1.3 and 8' ≈ 0.8 6').
