Limiting skin friction and limiting bearing capacity for piles
Limiting skin friction and limiting bearing capacity for piles
(OP)
Dear all,
I am checking pile capacities using Eurocode and I understand EC does not provide a calculation method for pile bearing capacity like the API.
I would like to know what limiting skin friction and limiting bearing capacity can I use? I would like a reference that provides limiting values for different soils.
Regards
Kk

If my memory working perfectly,as per LRFD end bearing pressure should limit within 3 Mpa and Skin Friction to 0.2 Mpa (ie.e for Drilled Shaft).
Though Tomlinson, limits end bearing to somewhere around 15 Mpa.
and Bowles Book, recommends about 4 Mpa on hard strata and about 1.6 Mpa to medium dense.
