Yes, it is subjected to biaxial moments with large moments along the longer length of pile cap.
Thank you for sharing the document. We had referred this document when developing the STM for pile cap. It is a bridge pier pile cap and the depth is 2000mm. STM was utilized for analysis of pile cap...
The tension force of 4.3MN is the maximum value for a corner pile from a envelope of forces and to standardize this value was adopted for a group of pile caps. The piles are mainly subjected to compression with a maximum compression in the order of about 10MN and co-existing tension of about 3MN...
I want to enquire about the requirements of using headed bars for anchoring reinforcement of tension pile in pile cap. The tension force is in the order of about 4.3MN in ULS and 6B40+4B32 pile bars are anchored in the pile cap to take up this force. Though not ideal, the headed bars are placed...
