11.1 Lateral Capacity of Piles


The depth of fixity and lateral capacity of pile have been worked out as per IS 2911-2010 Part 1 / sec2
Appendix C (clause 6.5.2). The soil properties have been considerd in line with geotech report. Free head
condition of piles is assumed

11.1.1 Input Data


Diameter of the pile D = 1200 mm
Characteristic compressive strength of concrete fck = 40 MPa
Characteristic yield strength of steel fyk = 500 Mpa
Partial factor for Reinforcement gs = 1.15 (IRC:112-2011,cl.no.6.2.2)

Length of Pile L = 16.000 m
Shift due to tilt in pile S' = L/150
= 0.1067 m
Shift in Pile S = 0.0750 m
Minimum eccentricity for Vertical Load e = 0.1817 m
11.1.2 Calculation of depth of fixity

The depth of fixity is determined from the codal provisions and the graph given there.
For piles in sands & Pre loaded clays,
4 EI where; ηh is read from the Table 3
Stiffness Factor = R = KB

K = 4.5 MN / m3 (From Geotech Report)


R = 5.09 m
= 5.09 m
Free Length of pile ( L1 ) = Pile cap bottom Level - Scour Level
L1 = 0.00 m
Hence; L1 / R = 0 / 5.086
= 0.00
Therefore from the graph we read the corresponding value of " Lf / R".
Lf / R = 1.91 (IS:2911-2010, Fig.4)
Hence; Lf = 1.91 x 5.086
Lf = 9.71 m

Actual Moment = M
Fixed End Moment = MF
MF = Q ( L1 + Lf ) (Free head Pile Condition)
M = m.MF where, m is reduction factor
M = m * Q * (L1 + Lf) obtained from IS - 2911

m = 0.3 (IS:2911-2010, Fig.5B)

Q = 88.8 T (For Initial Pile Load test)

M = 258.6 T m
