CALCULATION OF PILE CAPACITY AS PER IRC:78-2014 Cl 9.

2
CALCULATION OF ROCK SOCKETING LENGTH
Dia.of Pile (B) = 1.2 m
Thikness of Pile cap = 1.8 m
Length of Pile (from rock lvl to pilecap center) (L) = 10.418 m
Grade of Concrete = M 35 Mpa
Elastic Modulus of Concrete (Ec) = 3230825 t/m² (Eq. A2-5, IRC-112:2011)
Moment of Inertia of Pile (Ip) = 0.1018 m4
Unconfined Compressive strength of Rock (qc) = 2580.00 t/m² (as per geotech report)
Perm. Comp. strength of the intact rock = 300.0 t/m² (min. of 0.33qc or 30kg/cm²)
Max. axial Load (Qmax) = 310.74 t (at top of rock level)
Lateral Force per pile (H) = 45.81 t (at top of rock level)
Moment at the socket top (M) = 218.00 tm (at top of rock level)

Rotation (θ) for the pinned condition at top of socket:

H
(As per IRC amendment march'11, pile is assumed as pinned at top of socket to find
allowable rotation)
θ= HL² / (2EcIp)
= 45.81 x 10.42² / ( 2 x 32,30,825.00 x 0.1018 )
= 0.007559 radians
Permissible Rotation is 5% of 0.007559 radians
θpermissible = 5% x 0.0075590
= 0.00037795 radians
Calculation of Socket Length
Ls = ( 2 H / σ1 D ) + [ ( 4 H² / σ1² D² ) + ( 6 M / σ1 D ) ] ½
= ( 2 x 45.81 / ( 300 x 1.20 ) + [ ( 4 x 45.81² / 300² x 1.20² ) + ( 6 x 218.00 / ( 300.00 x 1.20 ) ]^0.5
= 2.1775 m
Provided Ls = 2.2000 m
Stresses along socket length
σmax = [H/(LsD)] + [6M / (Ls²D)] + [6H (Ls/2) / (Ls²D)]
= [45.81 / (2.20 x 1.20 ) ] + [6 x218.00 / (2.20² x 1.20 ) ] + [ 6 x 45.81 x ( 2.20 / 2) x (2.20² x1.20)]
= 294.61 t/m²
σmin = [H/(LsD)] - [6M / (Ls²D)] - [6H (Ls/2) / (Ls²D)]
= [ 45.81 / (2.20 x 1.20 ) ] - [6 x218.00 /( 2.20² x 1.20 ) ] - [ 6 x 45.81 x ( 2.20 / 2 ) x (2.20² x1.20)]
= -259.90 t/m²
M 294.61 353.53
H
Resistance along socket length x = 0.138
h = 1.2 m
Socket length of Pile

Pmax = σmax D A A
= 294.61 x 1.20
2.20 m

= 353.53 t/m
Pmin = σmin D
= -259.90 x 1.20
= -311.89 t/m
h = 1.17 m -259.9 -311.89
Shear force is ZERO at section A-A (Pile ) Stress Force
(1/2) * (Pmax * (h-x)/h + Pmax) * x = H
x = 0.138 m 353.5
M
Resistance or Force at A-A = 311.89 t/m H
0.14 m

Rotation (θ) at top of socket under fixed condition:


θ = 0.00009259 radians (θ = ML/EI + PL²/2EI)
(fixed condition) 311.89
< 0.00037795 radians Hence OK
Length of pile upto fixity= 268.5-258.982 + h = 1.2 m + 0.9 = 11.59 m
(Pilecap Bottom- rock level)+h+pilecap depth*0.5
