CAISSON - Tolinggula 2
DESIGN CRITERIA
1. The caisson is designed to rest on an underlying stratum of rock or satisfactory soil
and is used when unsatisfactory soil/water exists. If caisson bottom end not belled,
the caisson has to be drilled into hard stratum 3'-0' minimum.
2. All vertical/axial loads are supported by the bottom end hard stratum. The lateral
loads are supported by the embeded soil, Lembd, based on IBC/CBC Chapter 18.
ALLOW SOIL PRESSURE IN BOTTOM END STRATUM Qa = 44.77 ksf, ( 2000 kN / m2)

ALLOWABLE LATERAL SOIL-BEARING PRESSURE IN EMBEDMENT Pp = 0.25 ksf / ft, ( 39.2719 [kN/m ] / m)
