I have recently acquired several residential/commercial foundation design projects where the soils engineers are requiring either drilled cast in place piers, micropiles or helical piers.
I am a structural engineer and don't have vast experience in deep foundation design. Is there a good text...
I am using SS 17-4PH for both dowels and bolts. I have been told that Fy=105 ksi and Fu=135 ksi. How do I determine the allowable tensile stress and allowable shear stress given those values? Are the allowables different for fasteners vs. non-fasteners?
