Chapter 12, Problem 12.4P

Redo Problem 12.3 using Coyle and Castello’s methods for estimating both Qp and Qs.

12.3 A 500 mm diameter and 20 m long concrete pile is driven into a sand where γ = 18.5 kN/m3 and ϕ′ = 32º. Assuming δ′ = 0.7ϕ′ and K = 1.5 Ko, determine the load-carrying capacity of the pile, with a factor of safety of 3. Use Meyerhof’s method [Eq. (12.18)] for computing the point load-carrying capacity Qp, and Eqs. (12.42) and (12.43) for computing the load-carrying capacity of the pile shaft Qs.

An elevated tank feeds a simple pipe system as shown. There is a fire hydrant atpoint C. The minimum allowable pressure at point C is 22 psig for firefighting requirements.What are the maximum static head (in ft) as well as pressure (in psig) at point C (i.e. nodischarge in the system)? Do we meet the pressure requirement for firefighting? (Please donot worry about L or d in the figure below)
