Abstract

In this paper seventy-six reinforced concrete pile caps, each with four piles, were tested under vertical load. The variables involved were spacing of piles, arrangement of reinforcement, reinforcement ratio, side length of column and depth of pile cap. In regard to the bending ultimate strength the results of the test were compared with the calculated values according to the provision for the bending in A.I.J. Standard for Structural Calculation of Reinforced Concrete Structures and to the equations proposed by others as well as to that by authors. To conclude the discussions the calculated values according to the authors' equation agreed well with the experimental results.
