Finite Bearing Capacity of RCC Cast in Place Pile

Submitted by

For sub-soil investigation in mis project, standard penetration Test (SPT) has been executed with me permission of the authority. The most common for soil exploration in standard Penetration Test (SPT) in a borehole. This test is made by making use of a spilt spoon sampler. Which in connected to a strong of drill rods and is lowered into the bottom of the bonehole, which was drilled and cleaned in advice. The simplex in driven into me soid strata by making use of a drop weighting 63.5kg. The weight is allowed to fall freely from a height of 760mm on to an anvil fixed on the top of me drill rod. The number of blows required to penetrate from 150 to 450 mm depth is termed as SPT value or N-value.

1.1Objective

The process of indentifying the layers of deposits mat underline a proposed structure and their physical characteristics in generally referred to as subsurface exploration. The purpose of subsurface exploration is to obtain information mat will aid the foundation Engineer in-

a)Selecting the type and depth of foundation suitable for a given structure.

b)Evaluation the load-bearing capacity of a foundation.

1.2Approach

This theoretical research is based on three different memod; one is Meyenhof’s Alfa (α) and another one vesic memod.
