The wooden pile shown in the figure has a diameter of 115 mm and is subjected to a load of P = 80 kN. Along the length of the pile and around its perimeter, soil supplies a constant frictional resistance of w = 3.94 kN/m. The length of the pile is L = 5.2 m and its elastic modulus is E = 8.5 GPa. Calculate (a) the force Fg needed at the base of the pile for equilibrium. (b) the magnitude of the downward displacement at A relative to B.
