Calculation sheet VERTICAL BEARING CAPACITY OF PILE

Project Originated
LOGO Location Checked
Owner Approved
Standard BS EN 1997-1:2004 Geotechnical design - Part 1 General rules Date 10/21/2021

I. PILE DESIGNED FROM STATIC LOAD TEST RESULTS

- Design situation
Characteristic permanent vertical load Gk 6.00 MN Unfavourable
Characteristic variable vertical load Qk 3.20 MN Unfavourable
Diameter of bored pile D 1.20 m
- From the load-settlement graphs for each pile (Figure 1) this gives:
Pile 1 2.14 MN
Pile 2 1.96 MN
Pile 3 1.73 MN
Pile 4 2.33 MN
- Hence the mean and minimum measured pile resistances are:
(Rm)mean 2.04 MN
(Rm)min 1.73 MN
