Question
A concrete pile 50 ft long having a cross section of 15 in. x 15 in. is fully embedded in a saturated clay layer for which γsat = 121 lb/ft3, Φ = 0, and cu = 1600 lb/ft2. Determine the allowable load that the pile can carry. (Let FS = 3.) Use the a method Eq. (9.59) and Table 9.10 to estimate the skin friction and Vesic’s method for point load estimation.
