Question: Using the information given in the table below obtained from site investigations and laboratory results. Determine the allowable design load on a single bored concrete

Using the information given in the table below obtained from site investigations and laboratory results. Determine the allowable design load on a single bored concrete pile 1 m in diameter and 12 m long. Apply a safety factor of 3. The water table is 2.5 m below the ground surface.
\table[[Depth,Soil description,Soll properties],[0-5,Sand,\table[[\table[[\phi =30\deg ],[\gamma =17.5kN/m^(3)],[\gamma =18.8kN/m^(3)]]]]],[5-8,Clay,\table[[\table[[c_(u)=80kN/m^(2)],[\gamma =19.5kN/m^(3)]]]]],[8-16,Stiff clay,\table[[\table[[c_(u)=200kN/m^(2)],[\gamma =21.5kN/m^(3)]]]]]]
Using the information given in the table below
