Problem 2
A 500 mm diameter closed-end steel pipe pile is to be driven to a depth of 17 m into the following soil profile:
Depth (m) | Soil Classification | Unit Weight, γ (kN/m3) | Friction Angle, φ′ (deg) | OCR |
0–2.0 | Silty sand | 19.0 | 28 | 4.5 |
2.0–6.5 | Fine to medium sand | 19.5 | 31 | 3.5 |
6.5–16.0 | Silty sand | 19.1 | 29 | 2.5 |
16.0–17.5 | Well graded sand 19.8 | 35 | 1.5 |
