Calculation of Load Carrying Capacity of Pile (Al)

The document discusses the calculation of the load carrying capacity of a pile foundation, including determining the ultimate base resistance and side resistance based on soil properties like cohesion and friction angle, and calculating the end bearing capacity based on the pile diameter, soil density, and overburden pressure. Layers of soil at different depths are defined with properties, and the load capacity is calculated considering contributions from both side resistance and end bearing resistance.
