Q4: It is required to construct a pile foundation comprised of 25 piles arranged in 5 columns at distances of 120 cm center to center. The diameter and lengths of the piles are 50 cm and 12 m respectively. The bottom of the pile cap is located at a depth of 3 m from the ground surface. The details of the soil properties etc. are as given below with reference to ground level as the datum. The water table was found at a depth of 6 m from ground level.
