A reinforced cement concrete pile weighing 30 kN (including helmet and dolly) isuriven by a drop hammer weighing 30 kN with an effective fall of 0.9 m. The average pen- etration per blow is 15 mm. The total temporary elastic compression of the pile, pile cap and soil may be taken as 18 mm. Coefficient of restitution 0.36. What is the allowable load on the pile with a factor of safety of 2? Use Hiley's formula.

Using Engineering News formula, the allowable Load (Q) of a wooden pile hammered with a drop hammer (W = 30 kN), having free fall (H) 1.5 m, penetration in last blow (S) 5 mm, using empirical constant (C) as 2,5 and factor of safety as 6, will be
A rectangular pile (0.85 x 0.77) is driven in clayey soil arrangement composed of two different layers. First laye has a height of 9 m., cohesion of 59 kPA, friction factor of 0.84. Second Layer has a height of 5m., cohesion of 74 kPa, and friction factor of 0.87. Compute the allowable load that the pile can carry if the factor safety is 2.37. Use stored value. Answer to 5 decimal places.
7. A 12m long concrete pile with diameter = 0.45m is drilled into normally consolidated clay with S, = 90 kPa and friction angle = 32 degrees. The pile is loaded with 300 kN and in response to such loading, it settles 2.5mm. What is the mobilized short term end bearing resistance? Show your work and circle your answer.
Check the total settlement of a group of pile as shown in Figure 1. The total allowable settlement is set not exceed 3% of the pile diameter and the overconsolidated ratio (OCR) of the clay is more than 1. The groundwater table is located 15m beneath the ground level. The diameter of the pile, b is 0.5m and the spacing between piles, s is 2m.The pile group is subjected to foundation load of 5425kN. The laboratory testing data for the soil samples taken are as follows: At 5m, eo = 0.55, Cc = 0.32, C; = 0.09, o'o = 150kN/m?

The circular concrete pile (γc=23kN/m3) of Figure Q2 has dimensions which depend on the ultimate (j) and the penultimate (i) digit of your ID number as described by the formulae in Table Q2. It is constructed inside a sand with shear strength characteristics as given inTable Q2 as well. Calculate the safety factor for a working load equal to Q=300kN. Note : My ID Number is 9477287
A square prestressed concrete pile with a 14 inch side is to be driven to the necessary depth. It needs to be able to support 105 kips. It has been determined that the point resistance qp is 120 ksf and the side friction fs is 450 psf. Use formula 12.2 (see attached image) to estimate how long the pile needs to be with a factor of safety of at least 2.5. Round your answer to a multiple of 5 feet. Use L as a variable to calculate the load in formula 12.2. L can be obtained from this equation.

Determine the amount of axial shortening that the friction pile undergoes in service. Assume that the surface (or “skin”) friction f (force/lenth2) varies as shown and that E and A are constant.
A rectangular pile (0.55 x 0.92 m.) is driven in a clayey soil arrangement composed of two different layers. First layer has a height of 6 m., cohesion of 54 kPa, friction factor of 0.83. Second layer has a height of 6 m., cohesion of 74 kPa, and friction factor of 0.8. Compute the allowable load that the pile can carry if the factor of safety is 2.52. Round off to two decimal places.
