ADS Cantilever Gantries - Pile Design

B6 121.689 c/c eq. 2

B8 216.335 c/c eq. 2
B10 338.024 c/c eq. 2
B12 486.754 c/c eq. 2
B16 865.341 c/c eq. 2

Hence, B12 will be used with B= 240 mm

Maximum pile length: Lpile= 11 m
Number of turns: C= 93
Cover to reinforcement: cover= 80 mm
Pile diameter: D= 900 mm
A= 740 mm
Reinforcement diameter: d= 12 mm
Length of helical reinforcement: L= 214 m

Anchorage of vertical pile reinforcement into pile cap

Extract from How to Design Concrete Structures using Eurocode 2 - The Compendium (2nd Edition):
Detailing (page 80, table 2)

Vertical reinforcement to piles: B 20

According to BS 8500-1 a minimum C40/50 reinforcement should be used to resist freezing and thawing for XF and XD
type exposures (Tables A.5 and A.9)

Concrete class C 40 / 50
Factor 0.73

Assuming poor bond condition

For piles in tension: Lanchorage= 817.6 mm
For piles in compression: Lanchorage= 1160 mm

Hence: Lanchorage= 1160 mm

Total length of vertical bars: Ltotal= 12.160 m

Lap length for vertical pile reinforcement

For piles in tension: lo= 1219.1 mm

For piles in compression: lo= 1740 mm

Hence: lo= 1740 mm

For 50% of bars lapped in one location: lo= 1430 mm

Section: Minimum cover for pile reinforcement Ref: SMP M62 D&B

Minimum cover for pile reinforcement

= 25 conservatively assumming
= 35 for XC2 Conditions and S6 Structural Class
= 0
= 0
= 0

The minimum cover will be increased to allow concrete abrasion, by k3= 15 mm

= 50 mm

= 15 mm

= 65 mm

XA3 Conditions would require c35/45 minimum concrete strength

Hence, 80mm cover will be conservatively used.
