Drilled Cast-in-place Pile Design Based on ACI 318-05

DESIGN CRITERIA
1. SEND TO GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER THE BASE FORCES OF COLUMNS AND THE PERMISSIBLE DEFLECTION AT TOP PILE.
(PERMISSIBLE DEFLECTION 0.25 in SUGGESTED)
2. ASSUME FIX HEAD CONDITION IF Ldh & Lhk COMPLY WITH THE TENSION DEVELOPMENT. OTHERWISE PINNED AT TOP.
3. FROM SOIL REPORT, DETERMINE PILE PATTERN, LENGTH, AND MAX SECTION FORCES OF SINGLE PILE, P u, Mu, & Vu.
4. PILE CAPS SHALL BE INTERCONNECTED BY TIES WITH S DS/10 TIMES AXIAL CAPACITY OF VERT COLUMN LOADING.
(IBC 1808.2.23.1)

INPUT DATA & DESIGN SUMMARY

CONCRETE STRENGTH fc ' = 5 ksi
VERT. REBAR YIELD STRESS fy = 60 ksi
PILE DIAMETER D = 20 in
PILE LENGTH L = 35 ft
FACTORED AXIAL LOAD Pu = 480 k
FACTORED MOMENT LOAD Mu = 200 ft-k
FACTORED SHEAR LOAD Vu = 20 k
PILE VERT. REINF. 8 # 7
LATERAL REINF. OPTION (0=Spirals, 1=Ties) 1 Ties
LATERAL REINFORCEMENT # 4 @ 6 in o.c.
( 3.0 in o.c. at each end.)

( L dh = 8 in & L hk = 14 in )

THE PILE DESIGN IS ADEQUATE.
