A circular pile having a diameter of 0.35 m is 15.0 m long which is embedded in a layer of dense compacted sand with water table found at 5 m depth having the given properties: First Sand Layer: L = 5 m; Unit weight = 18 kN/m^3 Second Sand Layer: L = 10 m; Saturated Unit weight = 20 kN/m^3 Lateral pressure, K=1.2 Nq = 80 kN/m^2 Coeff. of friction = 0.40 1. Compute the point bearing capacity of the pile. 2. Compute the frictional capacity of the pile. 3. Compute the allowable capacity of the pile assuming a factor of safety of 3.
