It proposed to provide pile foundation for a heavy column; the pile group consisting of 4 piles.
placed at 2.0 m centre to centre, forming a square pattern. The under-ground soil is clay, having
cu at surface as 60 kN/m², and at depth 10 m, as 100 kN/m². Compute the allowable column
load on the pile cap with factor of safety of 3.0, if the piles are circular having diameters 0.5 m
each and length as 10 m.
