    Very useful! worth noting the 0.6 shear factor can be different, in Eurocodes it can be 0.5 also!

  • @bashirumar2697
    @bashirumar2697 Před 2 dny

    Isn't the steel characteristic strength fck factor of safety already accounted for from the stress block that gives rise to 0.87 in the steel formula for reinforcement area required?

    Good day Mr Structural Engineer Calc. I have this problem that i am solving and i can not find any relevant to the question, Please assist me with any source of relevant material that i can use to get it solved or any method or steps that i can follow to get to the correct possible design. Provide an optimal design of a 16 m long concrete pile that is to be driven into 12 m of loose sand that was underlain by very stiff clay. The geotechnical parameters of the sand and stiff clay are respectively as shown in Figure Q2 below: Sand: ∅’= 26°; Unit weight γ = 19 kN/m3 Stiff clay: cu = 80 kN/m2; Unit weight γ = 18 kN/m3 The pile is expected to undertake the following characteristic loads: DL = 35 00 kN LL = 25 00 kN Also, Fcu = 40 MPa and Fy = 450MPa Additionally, maximum pile length allowable = 20 m (meaning the stiff clay can extend to 20 m depth). The idea behind this exercise is to provide an optimum design.
