Question: A steel H - pile ( HP 2 5 0 X 8 5 ) 2 5 m long was driven into saturated cohesive soil. The

A steel H-pile (HP 250 X 85)25m long was driven into saturated cohesive soil. The undrained cohesive strength of the soil is 90kPa and the unit weight of soil, =20kNm3. If the pile is restrained against rotation, calculate the ultimate lateral resistance of the pile by Brom's method.
(Use Table 4 for My=1.1SFy, Section Modulus (S)=I0.5d1,Fy=248MNm2)
