DEAR SEFIEANS

PLEASE GUIDE ME...HOW TO CALCULATE THE NUMBER OF PILES.

I HAVE PILE CAPACITY AS FOLLOWS

1. HORIZONTAL CAPACITY = 44KN
2. COMPRESSION CAPACITY = 280KN
3. UPLIFT/TENSION CAPACITY  = 175KN

I HAVE REACTION AT EACH NODE FROM STAAD FOR 17 DIFFERENT LOAD CASES IN THE FORM OF:

FY, FX, FZ, MX, MY, MZ

no of piles are depends upon lateral load as well as Vetical load.

1) lateral load = sqrt(fx2 + fz2)

no of piles = lateral load/lateral capacity


2) Vertical load increased by approximate 20% for moments

no of piles =Vertical load /vertical capacity


Hence no of piles max of (1) & (2)

most of time uplift not governing,unless transmission tower (slender structures).

20% is ok as pile cap weight will be marginal comapre to total weight.

most of time lateral capacity & vertical loads governs.

Dear Mr.Shirsath,


How to find the number of piles with biaxial moment and vertical capacity.
How should i convert the moments into axial force...

You may please refer the book "Reinforced Concrete Vol-I" by H.J.Shah (Charotar), to clarify your query.
