A single friction pile of diameter 600 mm and length 18 meter is subjected to vertical compressive load. This pile is embedded in a loose, homogenous sandy strata, where dry unit weight, γd = 21 kN/m and angle of internal friction is 30°. Assume angle of wall friction δ = 2ϕ/3 and Consider the coefficient of lateral earth pressure (k) as 2.5. What will be the ultimate bearing capacity of pile (in kN)?
