A four-pile group consists of 12 in. square prestressed concrete piles 35 ft long. The piles are driven into an overconsolidated clay whose cohesion cu is 2,000 psf and whose soil unit weight is 115 pcf. The pile spacing is diameters. The water table is at the ground surface. Using a factor of safety of 3, find the capacity of the pile group (α-method).

A square prestressed concrete pile with a 14 inch side is to be driven to the necessary depth. It needs to be able to support 105 kips. It has been determined that the point resistance qp is 120 ksf and the side friction fs is 450 psf. Use formula 12.2 (see attached image) to estimate how long the pile needs to be with a factor of safety of at least 2.5. Round your answer to a multiple of 5 feet. Use L as a variable to calculate the load in formula 12.2. L can be obtained from this equation.
