Pile Capacity

The document calculates the ultimate load carrying capacity of a 0.3m diameter pile that is 25m long. It provides soil property information for 16 layers down the length of the pile. It then calculates the side resistance force contribution from each layer and sums these to get the total ultimate side resistance of 168.894 tons. It then divides this by a factor of safety of 3 to determine the safe load capacity of 56.298006 tons for the pile.
