Stiffness Calculation For Pile

This document calculates the static stiffness of a pile with a 900 mm diameter and 20 m length, made of material with a modulus of elasticity of 29580 kN/m2. It first calculates properties of the pile like its area and moment of inertia. It then calculates the pile's allowable load capacity and vertical stiffness as 94089.91 T/m, increased to 108203.402 T/m accounting for soil resistance. The horizontal stiffness is calculated considering the pile fixed at a depth of 9.4073159 m, yielding a value of 1373.16 T/m.
