‘empirical adhesion, friction, and end bearing factors are different.

A soil profile consists of 3 m of loose, saturates fil (bVe.= 15°, Yow = 15 kN/m*) over a thick layer of clay.
The 3 fil can be assumed to be settling, Ata depth of 8m and greater, Su Gx’ = 0.235, OCR=1, 6’ =
28", nd Ty. = 17.8 kN/m’. Groundwater is at 3 m below the ground surface. Assume that the undrained
shear strength of the clay from 3 m to 8 m varies according to Su/ dus! = 0.5 sin (OCR)? and the
average saturated unit weight is 19.8 kN/m?,
a) Plot the variation of shear strength with depth forthe clay up to a depth of 20m.
b) What effect would the fil have on the load capacity ofthe drilled shaft? Show one method to
mitigate any negative effect of the fill on the load capacity.
) Determine the ultimate load capacity of a driven precast concrete pile 0.8 min diameter
‘embedded 18 m from the ground surface.
