Foundation Design For Single Pole

This document provides the design details for a single pole foundation. It includes the design loads, soil parameters, material properties, and calculations to check for bearing pressure, overturning stability, and sliding resistance. The maximum bearing pressure is found to be unsafe under normal conditions but safe under short circuit force conditions. A factor of safety of 1.5 is used to check for overturning and sliding stability.

Net SBC at founding level KN/m2 = 250.00 = 250.00
Refer Soil Report
Net SBC at founding level kg/sqm = 25484 = 25484

Weight of earth kg = ( 1.5 x 1.5 - 0.5 x 0.5 )
x 1.2 x 1783.893986

Vertical load of Equipment / structure kg = 414
Total Vertical Load kg = 2626 + 4282 + 414

Normal Condition Short circuit force Condition
Moment about base of fdn. kgm = 148 x 1.8 = 436 x 1.8

Overturning moment kgm = 796 = 3214
(Ignoring Passive Resistance)
Actual Eccentricity m = 796 / 7322 = 3214 / 7322

Maximum Eccentricity ( =b/6 ) m = 0.5 / 6 = 0.5 / 6

Least dimension of member x 3 m = 1.5

Effective height of member m = 0.3 x 2 = 0.6 < 1.5
