Chapter 12, Problem 12.5P
A 400 mm × 400 mm square precast concrete pile of 15 m length is driven into a sand where γ = 18.0 kN/m3 and ϕ′ = 33º. Assuming δ′ = 0.7ϕ′ and K = 1.4 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.
