3.1 Axial Compression and Bending

Pile subjected to both axial compression and bending stresses shall be proportioned to satisfy the
following Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) requirements :

where:
Pu = factored axial compression load
Pn = nominal compressive strength considering the member as loaded by axial compression only
Øc = strength reduction factor (resistance factor) for compression members = 0.85
Mux = factored bending moment acting about the x-axis
Mnx = nominal moment strength for bending about the x-axis
Øb = strength reduction factor (resistance factor) for flexural members = 0.90
Muy = same as Mux except reffered to the y-axis
Mny = same as Mnx except reffered to the y-axis
