  • , calculate the required length and width of a PSC pile to support the allowable load.

    You are designing the foundation for a natural gas import terminal. The subsurface is predominantly alluvial clays in the upper 6 – 15 m below the ground surface (BGS), which has resulted in large post construction settlements on nearby structures. To prevent large settlements and differential settlements, the new gas tanks will be supported by pile foundations. You have determined that pre-stressed concrete (PSC) piles are the most economical solution. The pile layout will be a square with center-to-center spacing...
