Micropile Structural Capacity Calculation

Pile Diameter, f = 400 mm

Grade, fcu 35 cement grout (w/c ratio = 0.45)
Use API Pipe, f 88.9 mm 6.45 mm thk
fy = 500 N/mm2 (min)

Area of Steel & Concrete

As (provided) = 2prt
As = 1670.7068 mm2
Ac = p*d2/4
Ac = 125680 mm2

Ultimate Axial Load,

fu = 0.4fcu*Ac + 0.75fy*As
fu = 2386035.1 N
fu = 2386.03506 kN

Taking Factor of Safety (FoS) = 2

fall = fu/FoS
fall = 1193.0 kN
Based on the structural capacity above, the micropile is able to take the given working load
of 1193.0 kN
