Measuring site work, Excavation and Piling

Bid drawings typically include very little material about the precise requirements of site work operations, measuring site work and excavation work differs from measuring most other works on a construction project. The actual site work conditions are not provided and also the dimensions of the excavations are not known during the pre-construction phase. The precise measurement of the excavation and backfill of the earth material and topsoil is important for a contractor to decide upon the total cost required for the process. All the works should be carried out under OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) standards to ensure the safety of the workers.

Question

PROBLEM 3: Four columns x Five rows of
group piles are installed into a uniform clay
layer.
Clay soil: c=40 kPa, Nc=7.5
Piles: Diameter = 350mm, Length=35m, Pile to
pile spacing (center to center)=0.90m, pile
edge distance (center of pile to edge of pile
cap) =0.75m
Pile cap: Thickness=950mm, pile
cover=100mm, clear cover=75mm, db=25mm.
f'c=28 MPa, fy=420 MPa
Hint: Effective depth is found by subtracting
the pile cover, clear cover, and half of bar
diameter to the thickness.
a) Calculate the ultimate capacity of the pile
using single pile analysis if alpha = 0.74
b) Calculate the ultimate capacity of the pile
using block action if alpha = 0.74
c) Determine the group efficiency using the
calculated values above.

Square concrete piles are arranged in 3 row by 4 column formation beneath the pile cap. These piles are embedded into several layers of cohesive soil. The first layer is 3.36m deep and the second layer is 3.42m deep. The total depth of the third layer was not fully captured in the geotechnical report and is assumed to extend indefinitely. The piles are 0.45m wide, and are spaced 1.45m apart from each other. Each pile span 11.89m in length. The first layer has c = 60 kPa and α = 1.00. The second layer has c = 87 kPa and α = 0.81. The third layer has c = 85 kPa and α = 0.70. The bearing capacity factor Nc is equal to 8.What is the group efficiency (%) for the pile? Consider ultimate capacities. Please answer this asap.
