16 questions out of 55 were from the book GUPTA N GUPTA OBJECTIVE of civil engineering. Total ques were 4 ques from hydraullics, 7 from BMC, 4 FROM SOM, 4 from soil mechanics, 6 from transportation, 5 from engineering drawing.
A 16 pile group, consisting of diameter concrete piles, were cast in situ in a clayey soil whose unconfined compressive strength is 1100 psf. Each pile is 60 ft long and the pile spacing is 2.5 times the pile diameter.The water table is at the ground surface and saturated unit weight of the clay is 118 lb/cu.ft. using a factor of safety 3 and a reduction factor =0.45, compute the allowable capacity of the piles acting as individuals
