    Example Cantilever Soldier Piles: Ca, Active CP, Passive Coefficient Coefficient

    Uploaded by

    Vinh Duong
    This document provides an example calculation for cantilever soldier piles. It includes parameters for soil properties, pile geometry, loading conditions, and calculations to determine the maximum bending moment and required pile dimensions. The key outputs are: 1) The maximum bending moment (Mmax) on the soldier pile is calculated to be 307,919 ft-lbs based on the soil and structural properties input. 2) The minimum required pile length (Lp) is calculated to be 32.23 feet to support the bending demand while maintaining a deflection of less than 0.63 inches. 3) Lagging is designed for both steel and wood options. Steel lagging requires a thickness of 0.749 inches, while
