Question: You are required to design pile foundation for two different working loads: A . , 6 0 0 k N B . , 1 2

You are required to design pile foundation for two different working loads:
A.,600kN
B.,1200kN
Three criteria must be included into your design, which are:
Loading
i) The loading is at the center of the pile cap
ii) Consider the self-weight of the pile
Pile size
i) If the pile size is 200mm200mm(Grade 30)
ii) If the pile size is 250mm250mm(Grade 35)
iii) If the pile size is 350mm350mm(Grade 40)
Your designs are required to meet 3 specifications:
i) The bearing resistance of the soil with over design factor >2
ii) The individual pile total settlement limit is 25mm for pile diameter less than 250mm or 10% of effective pile diameter more than 250mm.
iii) The group pile total settlement limit is 50mm.
Draw the layout of each pile cap for the two different working load.
