The length of the pile is 25 m. Following are the properties of the sandstone: unconfined compression strength = qu(lab) = 78 MN/m² and angle of friction = 36°. Using a factor of safety of 3, estimate the allowable point load that can be carried by the pile. Use [qu(d Qu(lab). qu(design) b)/5]. (Enter your answer to three significant figures.)
