Example: 25/1 • Consider a concrete pile that is 0.305 m x 0.305 m in cross section placed in sand. The pile is 15.2 m long. The following are the variations of N60 with depth. ● ● Estimate Q, using: - Meyerhof (1976) equation Briaud et al. (1985) • Estimate Qf for the pile using: Meyerhof (1976) equation Briaud et al. (1985) - • Determine the allowable load- carrying capacity of the pile based on Meyerhof's method and Briaud's method. Use a factor of safety of 3.
