PILE FOUNDATIONS • Example: 35/1 A machine foundation is supported by four prestressed concrete plies driven to bedrock. The length of each pile is 24 m, and they are 0.3 mx 0.3 m in cross section. The weight of the machine and the foundation is 1360 kN. Given: unit weight of concrete = 24 kN/m¹ and the modulus of elasticity of the concrete used for the piles = 24.5 × 106 kPa. Determine the natural frequency of the pile foundation system.
B=L=1.5 and Q = 100kN calculate the primary consilidation settlement of the foundation

After the soil samples are taken and the soil properties determined, the engineer must design the foundation. It typically takes the engineer 4.75 days to design a foundation with a standard deviation of 0.83 days. Use this information and the information provided in Problem I to answer the following questions: a. What is the probability of completing all of the work (field sampling, testing, and design) within 43.5 days? b. The engineer completes the field sampling and testing in 36 days. What duration of the design work should be planned in order to ensure with 85% confidence that all of all of the work will be completed within 43.5 days?
