The document discusses the calculation of pile capacity for a construction project, including determining the ultimate and safe bearing capacities of the pile based on soil properties and load conditions.

The bearing capacity is calculated using formulas that consider the pile dimensions and properties, soil properties like cohesion and friction angle, and factors from code standards. Components like the base resistance and effective overburden pressure are determined.

The ultimate bearing capacity calculation considers the net bearing capacity factors, pile dimensions and surface area, soil unit weight and cohesion values, effective overburden pressures, and bearing capacity factors from code standards.

Pile Capacity Calculations


Type of Pile Bored Cast-in-situ Pile
Diameter of Pile D = 1.2 m
Natural Ground level = 66.9 m
Cut-off level of pile = -2.0 m
Founding level of Pile = -27.0 m
Water Table level = 0.0 m
Length of Pile from Cutoff level to Founding level = 25.0 m

Maximum Pile reactions


Normal Load Condition Jt. 326.0 LC 101.0 = 295.8 t From staad
Seismic Load condition Jt. 326.0 LC 106.0 = 323.9 t results
Wind Load case Jt. 326.0 LC 103.0 = 298.8 t
Seismic Load condition ( Applied Load reduced by 33%) = 243.5 t
Wind Load condition ( Applied Load reduced by 33%) = 224.7
Max Pile Load reaction = 295.8 t

Total Axial Load ( Max Pile Load reaction + 40% of DL of Pile ) = 314.6 t
