Static Bearing capacity equations for driven precast pile

𝑄𝑠 = 𝐴𝑠 𝑓𝑠
𝑄𝑏 = 𝐴𝑏 𝑓𝑏

𝐴𝑠 =skin friction area of the pile =perimeter*length

𝑓𝑠 =skin frictional resistance on unit surface area of pile
That depends on soil properties and loading condition
𝐴𝑏 = End bearing area of the pile =cross sectional area
of the pile tip
𝑓𝑏 =end bearing resistance on unit tip area of pile

Correction of SPT values for overburden pressure
for all types of cohesionless soil

Peck(1974) suggested overburden correction

2000
𝐶𝑁 = 0.77 log
𝜎 ′𝜊
Where,𝜎′𝜊 is the effective overburden pressure.
Thus,
(𝑁1 )60 =𝐶𝑁 × 𝑁60
 Correction of SPT for water table in case
of fine sand and silty sand

(𝑁1 )60(𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑟) = 15 + [(𝑁1 )60 − 15]

Overburden correction is applied first and then this water

Table correction is used.

Terzaghi and peck give the following correlation between SPT values
and other soil parameters
