.A PILE CAPACITY CHECK
Weight of pedestal = 1.00 x 1.00 x 1.50 x 24

= 36 kN
Area of pile cap = 2.30 x 2.3
= 5.29 m2
Weight of pile cap = 5.290 x 0.650 x 24

= 82.524 kN
Weight of overburden soil = (5.29 - 1 x 1 ) x 1 x 18

= 95.22 kN
Total weight of foundation = 36.000+ 82.52+ 95.22

= 213.74 kN
(Say 214 kN)
(a) Check for compression :

As per STAAD-III output, support reactions at column Grid(G-C),Jt.no39
load case 115. (DL+FP+LL+P(O)-T-AF-WZ)
Py = 932 kN (Compression)
Mx = 165 kN-m
Vz = 114 kN
Vx = 43 kN
Mz = 66 kN-m
Total vertical load = 214 + 932
= 1146 kN
Moments at center of pilecap
Mz,tot = 43.00 x 1.825 + 66
= 144.48 kN.m
Mx,tot = 114.00 x 1.825 + 165
= 373.05 kN.m
Therefore compression in pile

(b) Check for tension :

Py = -128 kN
Mx = 188 kN-m
Vz = 116 kN
Vx = 37 kN
Mz = 74 kN-m
Considering water table at 1.80 m below HPP, total uplift force Vb
Vb = 5.3 x -0.15 x 9.81
= -7.8 kN
Total vertical load = 214.00 + -128 -- 7.8

= 93.8 kN

Mz,tot = 37.00 x 1.825 + 74
= 141.53 kN.m
Mx,tot = 116.00 x 1.825 + 188
= 399.70 kN.m
Therefore Tension in pile = P/4 - (Mz,tot / Zz ) - (Mx,tot/ Zx)

Area of pile cap = { 2300 x ( 800 + 1500 ) - ( 0.5 x 1500 x1500 ) }/10^6
= 4.16 m2
Weight of pile cap = 4.16 x 0.650 x 24

= 64.896 kN
Weight of overburden soil = (4.16 - 1 x 1 ) x 0.95 x 18

= 71.136 kN
Total weight of foundation = 34.800+ 64.90+ 71.14

= 170.83 kN
(Say 175 kN)
(a) Check for compression :

As per STAAD-III output, support reactions at column G/C Jt.-40
For load case no. 115
Py = 1065 kN (Compression)
Mx = 137 kN-m
Vz = 96 kN
Vx = 17 kN
Mz = 111 kN-m
Total vertical load = 175 + 1065
= 1240 kN
Mz,tot = 17.00 x 1.775 + 111
= 141.18 kN.m
Mx,tot = 96.00 x 1.775 + 137
= 307.40 kN.m
Therefore compression in pile 1 = P / 3 + Mx,tot / Zx

= 1240/ 3 + 307.4 / ( 2 x 0.5^2 + 1^2 / 1 )
= 413.34 + 204.94
= 618.3 kN
= (Say 620 kN)
< 1.25 x 700 kN = 875 kN O.K.
Therefore compression in pile 2 = P / 3 + (Mx,tot / Zx ) + (Mz,tot/ Zz)

= 1240/ 3 + 307.4 / ( 2 x 0.5^2 + 1^2 / 0.5 ) + 141.175 / ( 2 x 0.75^2 / 0.75 )

< 1.25 x 700 kN = 875 kN O.K.
(b) Check for Tension

As per STAAD-III output, support reactions at column G/B Jt.-36
For load case no. 128
Py = -194 kN (Tension)
Mx = 125 kN
Vz = 81.1 kN
Vx = 4 kN
Mz = 4 kN-m
Considering water table at HPP, total uplift force Vb
Vb = Area of Pile Cap x Depth x Density of Water
Vb = 4.16 x 1.60 x 9.81
= 65.3 kN
Total vertical load = 175 +(-194) -(65.3) kN
= -84.3 kN
Mz,tot = 4.00 x 1.775 + 4
= 11.10 kN.m
Mx,tot = 81.10 x 1.775 + 125
= 268.95 kN.m
Therefore tension in pile 1 = P / 3 - Mx,tot / Zx

= -84.3/ 3 - 268.9525 / ( 2 x 0.5^2 + 1^2 / 1 )
= -28.1 - 179.31
= -207.5 kN
= (Say -210 kN)
> 1.25 x -280 kN = -350 kN O.K.
Therefore tension in pile 2 = P / 3 - (Mx,tot / Zx ) - (Mz,tot/ Zz)

= -84.3/ 3 - 268.9525 / ( 2 x 0.5^2 + 1^2 / 0.5 ) - 11.1 / ( 2 x 0.75^2 / 0.75 )

No. of Piles contributing Shear Force = k x 1 IS:456-2000
= 0.98 x 1
= 0.976
Beam shear = 620 x 0.97
= 605.12 kN
= (Say 610 kN )
Width of beam available = 800 +2 x (1000 + 400 - 1000 /2 - 262 ) x (1500 / 2 ) / 1500 mm
= 1438 mm
Therefore actual shear stress tv = 1.20 x 610 x 1000

1438.00 x 524
= 0.98 N/mm2
Shera stress capacity of concrete tc = 0.53 N/mm2 From Table 19 of IS:456-2000

PILE CAPACITY CHECK & FOUNDATION DESIGN

X 500 Dia Pile (typ)

Assumed size of pedestal = 1000 x 1000

.A PILE CAPACITY CHECK

Weight of pedestal = 1.00 x 1.00 x 1.50 x 24

Area of pile cap = 2.30 x 2.3

Weight of pile cap = 5.290 x 0.650 x 24

Weight of overburden soil = (5.29 - 1 x 1 ) x 1 x 18

Total weight of foundation = 36.000+ 82.52+ 95.22

(a) Check for compression :

(b) Check for tension :

Total vertical load = 214.00 + -128 -- 7.8

Moments at center of pilecap

Therefore Tension in pile = P/4 - (Mz,tot / Zz ) - (Mx,tot/ Zx)

( c) Check for Shear

PLEASE REFER PAGE NOS. FROM TO

FOR CORRESPONDING SHEAR CHECK CALCULATION

DESIGN OF PILE CAP

Distance of pile center from face of pedestal = 250 mm

Width of pile cap at the face of pedestal = 2300 mm

Depth required = Mu / Qb Q = 0.138 x Fck

= 182.75 mm < 530 Hence Safe

Pt (Minimum)(%) = 0.06 ( On each top & botm. Face

Design for Top Steel

Distance of pile center from face of pedestal = 250 mm

Width of pile cap at the face of pedestal = 2300 mm

Depth required = Mu / Qb Q = 0.138 x Fck

= 109.42 mm < 580 Hence Safe

Pt (Required) = 0.04 (Pt min = 0.12 as per IS 456)

Pt (Minimum)(%) = 0.06 ( On each top & botm. Face

Distance of pile center from face of pedestal = = 250 mm

Width of pile cap at the face of pedestal = 2300 mm

Depth required = Mu / Qb Q = 0.138 x Fck

= 182.57 mm < 530 Hence Safe

Pt (Minimum)(%) = 0.06 ( On each top & botm. Face

Design for Top Steel

Distance of pile center from face of pedestal = = 250 mm

Width of pile cap at the face of pedestal = 2300 mm

Depth required = Mu / Qb Q = 0.138 x Fck

= 107.68 mm < 580 Hence Safe

Pt (Minimum)(%) = 0.06 ( On each top & botm. Face

( c) Check for punching shear

Critical Section for

d = effective depth of pile cap

Punching shear (maximum compression in pile) = 460 kN (load case = 101 )

Permissible shear stress tc = 0.25 x Fck

tv 1.20 x 460 x 1000

(d) Check for punching shear around pedestal

Punching shear (Maximum Axial load) = 932.0 kN (Load Combination 101 )

Permissible shear stress = 0.25 x Fck

Required perimeter to resist shear 1.20 x 932 x 1000

Available perimeter to resist shear = 2 x (1000 + 2 x 266 +1000 + 2 x 266 )
