This document provides calculations to check the factor of safety against overturning for the extraction of a 1.8m diameter casing with 20mm thickness and maximum length of 15m from a bored pile project. It considers the self-weight of the casing, maximum tilt angle, soil properties, and passive soil resistance to calculate a stabilizing moment of 459kNm and destabilizing moment due to casing tilt of 120kNm, resulting in an overturning factor of safety of 3.8 which meets the minimum requirement of 3.

(a)Destabilizing moment Moment due to casing itself when it's tilted = 150 x e (e=eccentricity of casing due to tilting) By considering maximum tilt angle to be 6 degree, maximum allowable tilitng, e =15/2 TAN 6 =0.8m Destabilizing moment due to casing tilting =150 x 0.8 = 120 kNm (b) Stabilizing moment By considering first 5m of soil to be FILL with friction angle 30degree, Soil passive support = [0.5 x kp x (soil density-water density) x h x Ac x h/3] + [0.5 x (water density) x h x Ac x h/2] Soil depth as casing passive support =5m Casing in contact area act as soil passive resistance =Ac =2.8 m2 Soil passive support = [0.5 x 3 x (18-9.8) x 5 x 2.8 x 5/3] +[0.5 x 9.8 x 5 x 2.8 x 5/2] = 287 +172 kNm = 459 kNm Note: The allowable tilting of casing during extraction = 1/75.
