Drilled Pier Shareware

[Strainer]

I am doing some free design for our community. They are building a model of the Wright Brothers aircraft and the large scale model will be installed on a pipe mast. The mast is to be anchored with a drilled pier. Although I designed these years ago, I don't have software now to do so. Since this is a non-profit project, I need to find some freeware or spreadsheets to design the drilled pier.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Try the FHWA for a copy of the executable of COM624. They should also have an input guide -

See section 1806.8.2.1 of the 1997 UBC for lateral loads and moments. For vertical loads use end bearing or side friction to resist loads.
