This document contains the solutions to several homework problems about deep foundation piles. It analyzes individual pile capacity, group pile capacity, and uses methods like Allowable Strength Design (ASD) and Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) to determine required pile lengths. Soil properties and conditions like groundwater level, consolidation, and stratification are considered in the calculations.

Question I: A cylindrical timber pile of diameter 400 mm is driven to a depth of 10 m into a clay with su =
40 kPa, ϕ'cs = 28°, OCR = 2 and γsat = 18 kN/m3. Groundwater level is at the surface. (a) Estimate the
allowable load capacity for a factor of safety of 2. (b) Is the pile a friction pile?

Question II: A driven square concrete pile 0.3m by 0.3m is required to support a dead load of 100 kN and
a live load of 60 kN. The soil stratifcation consists of 5m of medium clay (su = 40 kPa, ϕ'cs = 26°, OCR = 2,
γsat = 18 kN/m3) underlain by a deep deposit of stif clay (su = 80 kPa, ϕ'cs = 24°, OCR = 4, γsat = 18.8
kN/m3). Groundwater level is at 2m below the ground surface. You may assume that the soil above the
groundwater level is saturated. Estimate the length of pile required using ASD (Allowable Strength
Design) with FS = 2 and LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design) with a dead load factor = 1.25 and a
live load factor = 1.75, and performance factors φf = 0.75 and φb = 0.7 for both TSA and ESA.

A pile group consisting of 9 driven piles, each 0.4 m in diameter, is arranged in a 3 X 3 matrix at a spacing
of 1.2 m as shown in Figure below. The piles penetrate a medium clay soil (su = 40 kPa, ϕ'cs = 30°, γsat =
18 kN/m3, OCR = 2) of thickness 8 m and are embedded 2 m in a stif clay (su = 90 kPa, ϕ'cs = 28°, γsat =
18.5 kN/m3, OCR = 5). Calculate the group allowable load capacity for a factor of safety of 2.
Groundwater level (GWL) is at 2 m below the surface but can rise to the surface due to seasonal changes

Determine the allowable load capacity of the 0.4 m diameter pile as shown in Figure below. The fll is
recent and unconsolidated. To eliminate negative skin friction, a steel shell is proposed around the pile
within the fll. The groundwater level is at 1 m below the fll in the soft clay but is expected to rise to the
surface. A factor of safety of 2 is required.
