PILECAP DESIGN

- Allowable pile capacity = 387.3 Kip

- Unfactored load, Pn = 1792.0 Kip

Pn = DL + LL

LL = 100 psf

(I) Effective Pile Capacity

Rpe = Rpa - Wp

Assume 4.0 ft thickness pilecap

Rpe = 387.25 Kip - 27.34 Kip

= 359.91 Kip

(II) To find number of pile required for column load

N = ( Pn / Rpe )

= 4.98

Use 5nos - 2.62ft diameter pile.

(III) Pilecap size and shape

For 5nos cap ; Pile c/c spacing = √2 k ( k = c/c spacing with 3dp )

= 11.14ft ~ 11.25ft

(IV) To find thickness of pilecap

Punching shear

fc ' = 3000 psi

fy = 50000 psi

d = h - cover ( cover = 8.5 in )

= 39.50 in

d/2 = 19.75 in

Column face to pile interior end = 27.75 in

Column face to pile exterior end = 59.25 in

Punching shear force 4Rup = 4 x 1.5 x 359.91 Kip

= 2159.4 Kip

Failure line length bo = 4 (c+d) = 350.0 in

Punching shear , ØVcp = 4 Ø √fc' bo d (Ø=0.85)

= 2574.6 Kip > 2159.4 Kip (OK)

b = 16.3 ft = 195.0 in
Concrete resisting one-way shear, ØVco = 2 Ø √fc' bo d (Ø=0.85)

(VI) To find Moment and Reinforcement

3.63 ft

1.5Rpe

Mu = 2nos x 539.86 kip x 3.63 ft = 3913.99 k-ft

b = 195.0 in

ρmax = 0.75 ρb

= 0.75 x 0.85 β1 (fc'/fy) [87000/(87000+fy)]

= 0.02065

= 2.06 %

ρact = (ρmax/2) = 0.01032 = 1.03 %

ØMn = Ø ρ fy b d2 ( 1 - 0.59 ρ fy/fc' )

d = 24.0 in

Use, d = 39.5 in

Use, H = 48.0 in

Mu
As =
Ø fy ( d - a/2)

Assume a = 6 in

As = 28.60 sq-in

Check a = 2.88 in
 As = 27.42 sq-in

Checked minimum reinforcement (As,min)

As,(min) = 0.0024 b h (BS 8110)

= 0.0015 b h (CP 114)

= (200/fy) b d (ACI)

= 0.004 b d (ACI)

Use As,min = 0.002 b h

= 18.72 sq-in

Choose 25 mm bar ; Ab = 0.761 sq-in

N = 36.04

Use 37 - 25 mm both direction. (Main Bar)

Choose 25 mm bar ; Ab = 0.761 sq-in

N = 24.60

Use 25 - 25 mm both direction. (Temperature & shrinkage bar)
