Area of Steel & Concrete

As (provided) = 2prt
As = 1670.707 mm2
Ac = p*d2/4
Ac = 785500 mm2

Ultimate Axial Load,

fu = 0.4fcu*Ac + 0.75fy*As
fu = 11623515 N
fu = 11623.51506 kN

Taking Factor of Safety (FoS) = 2

fall = fu/FoS
fall = 5811.8 kN
Based on the structural capacity above, the micropile is able to take the given working load
of 5811.8 kN
