Total Moment (Kn) = -5273.38

Now,
Radial moment at outer edge (Mrβ1) = (- 10014.68 x 4.25) / 100 = (-) 425.63 KN-m/m. and
Radial moment at inner edge (Mrα) = (- 5273.38 x 4.25) / 100 = (-) 224.12 KN-m/m.
As in reality, this inner edge is a free edge. For an annular raft apply equal and opposite moment
in the inner surface. The sum of the two effects will give the final value.
Now, applying an equal and opposite moment, Mα at f = α, the radial moment at f = β is:
𝛼 2 (1 − 𝑓 2 )
𝑀𝑟𝛽2 = 𝑀𝑟𝛼 𝑥 2 𝑥
𝑓 (1 − 𝛼 2 )
So, Radial Moment, Mrβ2 = (-224.12) x (0.1089/0.442) x ( 0.558 / 0.891) = -34.59 Kn-m/m
Now, Design radial Moment (Mrβ ) = Mrβ1 + Mrβ2 = 460.22 Kn-m/m

Calculation of Tangential / Circumferential Moment (M t) at Middle Line (R2 = 4.25 m):


Ref : From the Book of Design of Tall structure by S.M. Manohar, Page No. 125,
Outer Radius of pile cap (a) = 5.90 + 0.275 + 0.15 = 6.325 meter = 6.4 meter
Inner Radius of pile cap (b) = 2.60 - 0.275 -0.15 = 2.175 meter = 2.1 meter
Radius of column line (c) = 4.25 meter
Now, α = (2.1 / 6.4) = 0.33
and β = (4.25 / 6.4) = 0.665
