For the same data given in Problem 13.4, determine the load-carrying capacity of the drilled shaft, limiting the settlement to 10.0 mm.


Problem 13.4

Determine the ultimate load-carrying capacity of the drilled shaft shown in Figure P13.4, using the Reese and O’Neill (1989) method.


Figure P13.4

750 mm Sand 8.0 m y = 16.5 kN/m3 T1.0 m Sand 1.5 m y = 18.5 kN/m³, N60 = 25

750 mm Sand 8.0 m y = 16.5 kN/m3 T1.0 m Sand 1.5 m y = 18.5 kN/m, N60 = 25
