1. A driven closed-ended pile, circular in cross section, is shown in figure below.Calculate :
a. The ultimate point load using Meyerhof’s and Vesic’s (Take Irr = 50)
b. The ultimate frictional resistance Qs (K = 1,4 and ’ =0,6’)

2. Following is the variation of N60 with depth in granular soil deposit. A concrete pile 9m
long (450mm x 450mm in cross section) is driven into the sand and fully embedded in
the sand. Estimate the allowable load carrying capacity of the pile (Qall). Use FS = 4
and Meyerhof’s equation and Briaud et.al equation
3. A concrete pile 50ft long having a cross section of 15 in x 15 in, is fully embedded in
saturated clay layer for which sat = 121 lb/ft3,  = 0, and cu = 1600 lb/ft2. Determine the
allowable load that the pile carry (FS = 3).
a. Use  method to estimate the skin friction and Vesic’s method for point load
estimation
b. Use  method to estimate the skin friction and Meyerhof’s method for point load
estimation

4. A concrete pile 16 in x 16 in. in cross section is shown in figure below. Calculate the
ultimate skin friction resistance by using the  method,  method,  method . use ’R =
20 for all clays, which are normally consolidated

5. The average values of the undrained shear strength (cu) with depth are given below. If
CFA (Continuous Flight Auger) pile having a diameter of 0,6m and length of 10m is to be
constructed in this clayey soil. Estimate the ultimate side skin resistance (Qs)

6. A concrete pile measuring 16in x 16in. in cross section is 60 ft long. It is fully embedded
in a layer of sand. The following is an approximation of the mechanical cone
penetration resistance (qc) and the friction ration (Fr) for the sand layer. Estimate the
allowable bearing capacity of the pile (FS = 4)
7. A concrete pile is 20m long has a cross section of 0,46m x 0,46m. the pile is embedded
in a sand having  = 17 kN/m3 and ’=38. The allaowable working load is 1200 kN. If
700 kN are contributed by the frictional resistance and 500 kN are from the point load,
determine the elastic settlement of the pile (Ep = 2,1 x 106 kN/m2, Es = 30 x 103 kN/m2 ,
s = 0,38, and  = 0,57)

8. The plan of grup pile is shown in figure below. Assume that the piles are embedded in
saturated homogeneous clay having a cu = 90 kN/m2. Given : diameter of piles 316mm,
center to center spacing of piles 600mm, and length of piles 20m. find the allowable
load carrying capacity of the pile group (FS = 3)

9. The section of a 4x4 group pile in a layered saturated clay is shown in figure below. The
piles are square in cross section 356mm x 356mm. center to center spacing of the piles
is 1m. determine the allowable load bearing capacity of the pile group (FS=3)
10. Figure below shows a group pile in clay. Determine the consolidation settlement of the
group.
