Qb = Ab [cbNc + P’ob(Nq-1) + 0.5gBNg + Pob]
minus weight of pile, Wp
but Wp  Ab.Pob
Qb
and as L >>B, 0.5gBNg << Wp
and for f > 0, Nq - 1  Nq
Qb = Ab [cbNc + P’obNq]
Shaft Resistance

As
Cohesive component : Qsc = As . a . cs
Frictional component : Qsf = As .K P’ostan d

Qs = Qsc + Qsf = As [ a .cs + K P’ostan d ]
Total Pile Resistance
Qu = Qb + Qs
Qu = Ab [cbNc+P’obNq] + As [ a .cs+K P’otan d ]
How do we compute Qu when shaft resistance
along the pile is varying?

Bored Piles in Clay
• Skempton’s recommendations for side
resistance
– a =0.45
– acu =100 kPa
for cu <215 kPa
for cu>215 kPa
– Nc is limited to 9.
– A reduction factor is applied to account for
likely fissuring (I.e., Qb = Ab  cb Nc)
Soil disturbance
• sampling attempts to establish in-situ
strength values
• soil is failed/remoulded by driving or
drilling
• pile installation causes substantial
disturbance
– bored piles : potential loosening
– driven piles : probable densification
Scale effects
• Laboratory samples or in-situ tests
involve small volumes of soil
• Failure of soil around piles involves much
larger soil volumes
• If soil is fissured, the sample may not be
representative

Das (1990) recommends the following values for K / Ko:
Pile Type
K / Ko
Bored or Jetted piles
1
Low-displacement, driven piles
1 to 1.4
High-displacement, driven piles
1 to 1.8
Kulhawy (1984) makes the following similar recommendations:
Pile Type
K / Ko
Jetted piles
1/2 to 2/3
Drilled shaft, cast-in-place
2/3 to 1
Driven pile, small displacement
3/4 to 5/4
Driven pile, large displacement
1 to 2
K.tand
• The K and tand values are often combined
into a single function
• see p 28 for Vesic values from Poulos and
Davis
Pile-soil friction angle, d
• A function of f
• See values by Broms and Kulhawy (p26)
• A function of pile material
– steel, concrete, timber
• A function of pile roughness
– precast concrete
– Cast-in-place concrete

Uniform dense sand (f = 40o ; g = 21kN/m3)
Water table at 1m
Pile length 15m
Check end bearing with Vesic and Meyerhof Methods
Pile is driven on 2m further into a very dense layer
f = 44o ; g = 21.7 kN/m3
Compute modified capacity using Meyerhof

Check shaft capacity with Vesic and Meyerhof Methods
By comparsion, check capacity of 550mm diameter
screwed pile
Lateral load on single pile
• Calculation of ultimate lateral resistance
(refer website/handouts for details)
• Lateral pile deflection (use use subgrade
reaction method, p-y analysis)
• Rock socketed pile (use rocket, Carter et
al. 1992 method)
