A single vertical friction pile of diameter 500 mm and length 20 m is subjected to a vertical compressive load. The pile is embedded in a homogenous sandy strata where angle of internal friction (ϕ)=30∘, dry unit weight (γd)=20 kN/m3 and angle of wall friction (δ)=2ϕ3. Considering the coefficient of lateral earth pressure (K)=2.7 and the bearing capacity factor (Nq)=25, the ultimate bearing capacity of the pile (in kN).4499 |
