3.0 STRUCTURAL DESIGN CALCULATIONS OF THE PILE


3.1 Maximum allawble compression load: Allowing for eccentricity of loading due to deviations during construction, the ultimate axial load should not exceed the value of N given by: N = 0.4 fcu A c + 0.75 As fy (Eq 38 of BS 8110:1997) fcu = fy = As = , N = 3538488.9 N Or Load Factor : 1.4 Safe N = 252.75 TONS Hence the pile is structurally safe to carry the load

3.2 Design Requirements of Reinforcement : BS 8004:1986 Art 7.4.2.5.4 refers OUT OF POSITION ALLOWED : OUT OF PLUMB ALLOWED : The reinforcement shall be designed for this Article requirement H-force on the Pile (5.0% of the Vertical Load) : Horizontal load from plumb on the pile : (Including construction allowances) B.M produced by eccentricity : 75 1:75 50.00 kN 13.33 kN 75.00 kN.m

3.3 Bending Moment calculations in Pile due to H-force and constructional allowances: Since the piles are restrained by the pilecaps and Tie Beams the pile head shall be considered to be restrained from rotational moment. Hence the moment on the pile occurs mainly due to horizontal force at the pile head. Total horizontal force on the pile head (Ultimate) H= 83.33 kN Elastic Analysis: Reese and Matlock have established a series of curves for normally consolidated and cohesionless soils for which the elastic modulus of the soil Es is assumed to increase from zero at the pile head in direct proportion to the depth assuming that the pile behaves as an elastic beam on a soil which also behaves elastically. Refer pages 219 to 223 of " Pile Design And Construction Practice by M J Tomlinson Third Edition; 1987 Using the fixed Pile head equation (6.58) MF Fm T E I nh T Zmax L Zmax = MF = FmHT

Therefore maximum bending moment on pile = Mmax = hs = 75 318 mm 318 Then hs /h = 500 + = 100.75 0.64 = 175.75 kN.m

For the Ultimate State Design apply a load factor of 1.4 for working load: 1.4 N M = 5.60 ; = 1.41 3 h h From Chart 13 for design of circular columns to BS 8110 , for this condition: Area of Steel required Areq = (Asmin = 0.40%) 0.40% Area of Steel provided As Proposed reinforcement: Main Bars, 6 Area = Links 8 = 0.61% Therefore safe

3.4 Stress in Concrete: According to BS 8004:1986, Section 7.4.3.3.1 the working stress in compression should not exceed 25% of the characteristic concrete strength at 28 days; Working stress = 100 x p/4 x < 10000 500 0.25 x fcu < = 10 5.092958179 N/mm N/mm2 Therefore safe

3.5 Check for Clear Spacing: For 6 bars of 16 mm dia, c.c spacing = Therefore clear spacing is 150.50 mm Art 3.12.11.2.4 of BS 8110 (Part 1) : 1997 max clear spacing is 300 mm Thus 6 bars provided are adequate. 166.50

3.6 Check for Bond Length: Table 3.27 of BS 8110:1997 shows the following values of anchorages for various grades of concrete: Grade 30 35 40 For fcu Type 2 Deformed Bars 40 f 38 f 35 f = 40 = == 750 N/mm x 560 mm mm into the pile cap 35 16

3.7 Check for steel in tension: As = 1206.3716 mm for 6 Bars, Dia Ultimate Tensile Force = 1206.37 x 437 = 527184.38 N = 52.718 Load Factor = 1.4 Allowable Tensile Force = 37.66 Tons > 16 mm (460 X 0.95 = 437) Tons 0 Tons Therefore safe

3.8 Check for Spacing of Stirrups: From Table 3.8 BS 8110 (Part 1:1997) , for fcu = ds = 400.00 mm 40 N/mm gm = 1.25 mm2

Area of Reinforcement Provided = 1206.37 Shear Stress = vc 0.79 x (100 x As/(b x d))1/3 x (400/ds)1/4/gm = = vc =

As v < vc the permissible shear stress is more than the actual shear stress , No Shear reinforcement is not required. however we provide nominal 8 mm links @ 150 mm

For this condition use the following equation: Minimum Shear reinforcement required = Asv 0.4 bv sv / 0.95 fyv Asv = 0.40 x 0.95 x 500 460 x 150 = < 68.650 100.53 mm mm Therefore safe. 5

Length of Piles: It should be emphasized that the length of pile assumed in these calculations is based on Lower cut-off levels, Loadings and results of tests run on a few boreholes carried out by a third party. At any rate such information contained in the Boreholes results affecting the design may not be exactly representative of the whole area and particularly that the hard strata reported may differ from pile location to the other. The length of pile(s) shall be determined on site while boring by our supervisor on site as he is the best judge of the soil conditions because he watching every bore all the time.Of course the attention of the Engineer's Representative shall be drawn to each case as it arises and a decision taken regarding where to found the pile in each case. 4.2 Total Pile Capacity : 4.2.1 Pile Capacity in Rock Layer : Taking the worst case, Rock Level : -7.60 m UCS of rock at Toe of Pile : -8.60 m 2175 kN/m UCS in Rock Socket : 1770 kN/m Length of Rock Socket : 1 m Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Pile Qu _ a. 1st assumption: Reference: Braja M Das (Principles of Foundation Engineering - Pages 487 - 504) - Estimation of shaft & end bearing according to TERZAGHI which can be calculated as follows: Qu = Qb + Qs = Ab qb +As qs = Ab (1.3 C Nc + Nq s'v0 + 0.3 g' D Ng) + 1/2 Ks s'v0 tand As Ab = Pile base area = 196349.5 mm C = Cohesion at base = quc of UCS of Rock (but less than 0.46) =
