We have a single pile with diameter D and an estimated ultimate skin friction resistance equal to Qf and base resistance equal to Qb.
My question is: if we have one row of n=20 piles in distances equal to 1.2*D, which should be the total skin resistance and base resistance of the row?
Whould it...
According to din 4014 the min pile's embedment depth in the bearing stratum is 2.5m.
So my question is: if the bearing stratum has an undrained strength cu=150 kN/m2 should the pile be embedded also 2.5 m or not? Note that the bearing layer extend to a large depth.
