1 A steel pile (H-section; HP 360 x 152; see Table 11.1) is driven into a layer of sandstone. The length of the pile is 18.9 m. Following are the properties of the sandstone: unconfined compression strength = qulab) = 78.7 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(design) = qu(lab)/5].

Please answer 11.11

11.11 A steel pile (H-section; HP 360 × 152; see Table 11.1) is driven into a layer of
sandstone. The length of the pile is 18.9 m. Following are the properties of the
sandstone: unconfined compression strength = qmdab) = 78.7 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(design) = qu(lab)/5].
