The pile is to be checked for ultimate soil resistance and bending moments considering the short pile concept.
[as per reference 1 , Table 5]
ULTIMATE SOIL CAPACITY (BY BROM'S METHOD):

As per reference 3, the ultimate soil capacity is determined using Brom's method.

The pile can be classified as Free head short pile,

The passive earth pressure coefficient K P= 1+sinθ/1-sinθ

Effective soil density, ꝩ=ρdry = 18 kn/m^3

LATERAL SHER

[as per reference 3, Fig 6.28(a)]

For epile / Dpile= 0.5 and

Lpile / Dpile= 6.67

Ultimate lateral resistance due to cohesion, Quc / [Link] = 2

2
Quc= [Link]
3.60 Kn

3
Ultimate resistance under friction, Quf= 0.5*ꝩ*Lpile *Bpile*Kp/ epile + Lpile
31.68 Kn

Ultimate load capacity Qu = Quc + Quf

35.28 Kn

Assuming factor of saftey = 2.5 FOS= 2.5

Allowable lateral resistance Qall= Qu/FOS

14.11 Kn

Actual value of shear from the superstructure Q= 2.75 Kn (from staad model)

Therefore, PileL= SAFE

BENDING MOMENT

cohesionless soils

Resistance to moment due to cohesion,

0.12 m

Mmaxc= Quc*(epile + 1.5*Bpile + 0.5*X0c)

2.38 kn.m

Resistance to moment due to friction X0f= 0.82*( Quf/ ꝩ*Bpile*Kp)0.5

1.12 m
Mmaxf= Quf (epile + 1.5*x0f)
57.90 kn.m
Overall resistance, Mmax= Mmaxc + Mmaxf
60.28 kn.m

Assuming factor of saftey of 2.5 FOSm= 2.5

Allowable resisting moment M= Mmax/ FOSm

24.1121 kn.m

Actual moment from the superstructure, QM = 4.5300 kn.m (from staad model)

Therefore, PileM= SAFE

DESIGN OF REINFORCEMENT IN PILE
The vertical and lateral loads on pile are,

Since no IS code explains tensile strength with bending for circular sections, the following calculation is performed
by considering the circular area with equivalent rectangular area
