Redo Problem 12.20 using Vesic’s method, assuming that the skin friction is distributed uniformly along the shaft.


Problem 12.20 

A 600 mm diameter and 25 m long driven concrete pile carries a column load of 1200 kN. It is estimated that the shaft carries 900 kN and the point carries 300 kN. Determine the settlement of the pile head using the Poulos and Davis method with the following data:

Es = 25 MN/m2, Ep = 30,000 MN/m2, and µs = 0.2
