Pier Foundation

This document appears to be engineering calculations for the design of a foundation pier or pedestal. It includes calculations for factored forces and moments, soil pressures, uplift capacity by calculating skin friction and adhesion forces in multiple soil layers, and ultimate bearing capacity. References are made to soil properties from a borehole report. The document contains technical calculations with soil and structural parameters.
