Question: QUESTION 3 ( 5 MARKS ) A precast concrete pile of 1 9 m length having a cross section of 3 5 0 m m

QUESTION 3(5 MARKS)
A precast concrete pile of 19m length having a cross section of 350mm350mm
is fully embedded in a soil profile as shown in Figure 2. The pile carries a
permanent axial load of 450kN(including the self-weight of the pile) and an
applied variables axial load of 50kN.
