ANALAYSIS & DESIGN OF PILE CAPS
Mahilasamakhya Buildings
I) Design Parametres:-
Concrete mix : M20
Steel : Fe415
Cover to Reinforcement : 50mm
Unit weight of RCC = 25.0KN/cum
Unit weight of Brick masonry = 19.0KN/cum
Characteristic compressive strength of concrete = 20.00N/sqmm
Yield strength of steel = 415N/sqmm
Bredth of column = 0.30m
Depth of column = a = 0.38m
Dia of pile = 0.375m
Factored load on column = P = 777.35KN
II) Proportioning of pile cap:-
Factored load on the pile cap = 777.35KN
Add for self weight of pile cap = 77.74KN
Total load = P
u
= 855.09KN
As per Table 1 of IS:2911(Part III)-1980,safe load carrying capacity 375mm dia DUR piles in medium compact
sandy soils or clayey soils of medium consistency is = 360.00KN
As per clause 5.2.7.2 of IS:2911(Part III)-1980,the minimum spacing between the centre to centre of bored DUR
piles should not be less than 1.5D
u
.
Further as per clause 5.2.8.1,the load carrying capacity of each individual pile should be reduced by 10% due to
group action.
As per Table 1 of IS:2911(Part III)-1980,safe load carrying capacity 375mm dia DUR piles in medium compact
sandy soils or clayey soils of medium consistency is = 360.00KN
Providing two piles,the load carrying capacity of the pile cap will be 720.00KN
Reducing 10% per each pile due group action,the net safe load carrying 648.00KN
capacity
Hence,ultimate load carrying capacity of the pile cap = 972.00KN
Hence O.K
As per the above criteria,the proposed pile cap is as shown below:-
DESIGN OF PILE CAPS----PC1
2.13
0.70
0.15
piles
1.45
As such,the dimensions of the pile cap of as given below:-
The length of pile cap proposed = 2.13m
The width of pile cap proposed = 0.70m
Distance between c/c of piles = L = 1.45m
Shear span a
v
= 0.535m
III) Depth of pile cap:-
a)For bending action:-
The ultimate bending moment on the pile cap = M
u
= (P
u
/2)x[L/2-a/4] = 269.35KN-m
Adopting Limit state method of design M
u
= 0.138 f

The effective depth of footing required = d = [M
u
/(0.138f
ck
b)]
0.5
373.38mm
Over all depth required assuming 20mm dia bars = = 433.38mm
However assume 700mm overall depth,then the effective depth comes to 640.00mm
The actual depth of neutral axis = 88.66mm
Area of steel required = 1237.67sqmm
No.of 20mm dia bars required = 3.94Nos
Hence No.of 20mm dia bars to be provided within pile diametre = 5Nos
Then the area of reinforcement provided = 1570.00sqmm
Percentage of reinforcement provided = 0.35
b)Check for shear:-
The critical section of one way shear is at a distance of 'd' from the face of the column
Hence,the factored design shear force V
Fd
= 427.54KN
Nominal shear stress T
v
= 0.954N/sqmm <2.8 N/sqmm
(As per Table 20 of 1S 456)
2.13
0.70
0.15
piles
1.45
Hence,the section is safe from shear point of view
The percentage area of the tensile reinforcement provided = 0.350%
The design shear strength of concrete for the above steel percentage from
Table 19 of IS 456 is 0.408 N/sqmm
As per clause 40.5.1 of IS 456:2000,the shear strength can be increased by 2d/a
v
times for the sections located
at a distance closer than 2d from concentrated load or face of support,where a
v
is the shear span
2d/a
v
= 2.39
Hence,increased shear strength = 0.975 N/sqmm Hence V
uc
= 436.85KN
0.975 >0.954
Hence,no shear reinforcement is required.
c) Check for Truss action:-
The shear span to depth ratio = a
v
/d = 0.84 >0.60
Though,the truss action is not pre-dominant,the tensile reinforcement should be checked for horizontal tensile force ' H '
resulting from truss action,because a
v
/d ratio is not more than 2.
Hd=(P
u
/2)[L/2-a/4]
H = P
u
/8d[2L-a] = 420.86KN
Area of steel required to resist the above above tensile force A
st
= 1165.66sqmm
The tensile reinforcement provided is more than the above value.Hence O.K
d) Bursting steel:-
Generally 0.2 times tensile steel will be provided as bursting steel.
Hence,the bursting steel required = 314.00sqmm
Adopting 12mm rings,No.of rings required = 2.78
However,provide 4 Nos of 12mm dia rings as bursting steel.
As per Table 1 of IS:2911(Part III)-1980,safe load carrying capacity 375mm dia DUR piles in medium compact
As per clause 5.2.7.2 of IS:2911(Part III)-1980,the minimum spacing between the centre to centre of bored DUR
Further as per clause 5.2.8.1,the load carrying capacity of each individual pile should be reduced by 10% due to
As per Table 1 of IS:2911(Part III)-1980,safe load carrying capacity 375mm dia DUR piles in medium compact
