% effective overburden pressure at the pile tip for end bearing part and average effective
overburden pressure in the layer for s'in friction part.
N
q
% a bearing capacity factor based on angle of shearing resistance, and D(B ratio
K % a coefficient of earth pressure dependent largely on the relative density of the soil.
% angle of friction bet"een the pile and the soil.
The base and shaft friction resistances do not develop linearly "ith depth belo" certain depths.
This is probably mainly due to arching effects in the soil related to its relative density and
compressibility. ,t is therefore recommended that the effective overburden pressure in the above
equation should be calculated linearly "ith depth only do"n to a limiting depth (D
c
) and then
assumed to remain constant belo" this. Tests indicate that the critical depth ranges from about
1. piles diameter for loose sand to about . pile diameters for dense compact sand.
The limiting value of pile end bearing capacity in sands and gravels is 1/ 01(m
and that of
unit s'in friction is 11. '2a.
