The depth of fixity is determined from the codal provisions and the graph given there.
For piles in sands & Pre loaded clays,
4 EI where; ηh is read from the Table 3
Stiffness Factor = R = KB

Actual Moment = M
Fixed End Moment = MF
MF = Q ( L1 + Lf ) (Free head Pile Condition)
M = m.MF where, m is reduction factor
M = m * Q * (L1 + Lf) obtained from IS - 2911
M = 258.6 T m
= 2586.4 kN m

11.1.4 Check for Axial and Flexure Capacities
The pile is checked for maximum axial load with corresponding BM case and maximum BM with
Maximum compression capacity of pile Puz = Ac * fcd + Ay * fyd [IRC 112:2011, cl.no. 8.3.2 (4)]
Hmax = 887.5 kN
.`. Mu = 3110 kN m
M / Mu = 0.83 Safe

11.1.5 Check for Shear Capacity ( IRC:112-2011, cl.no.10.3.2(2))
Effective depth deff = 1101 mm
Equivalent Width b = SQRT(3.14/4×1200^2)
1063 mm

Shear Reinforcement is Required
Provide 2L 12mm dia stirrups
Asw = 226 mm2
s= Spacing provided = 150 mm
z= lever arm = 0.9d
Ɵ = 33.95 0
Ɵ is between 21.8 & 45
