Refer to the pipe pile in saturated clay shown in Figure 1. For the pile,Calculate the skin resistance (Qs) by (1) the α method, (2) the λ method, and (3) the β method. For the β method, use ϕ’R= 300 for all clay layers. The top 10 m of clay is normally consolidated.The bottom clay layer has an OCR = 2. (Note: diameter of pile = 457 mm)Using the results of Exercise 10, estimate the allowable pile capacity (Qall).

Circular precast concrete piles with 60 cm in diameter will be driven to a tip penetration of 30 m. The soil profile is all clay and the water table is 2 m under the ground surface. Consider that the soils with cu < 60 kPa can be considered soft for this case. The unit weight of water is 10 kN/m3. Unconfined compression tests on samples taken from a thin-walled Shelby tubes were performed, and the soil profile has the following stratification: 0-5 m cu= 20 kPa γt=16.5 kN/m3 5-15 m cu= 40 kPa γt=17.5 kN/m3 15-80 m cu= 200 kPa γt=20.5 kN/m3 State any necessary assumptions.
