Hi, I'm working on an abutment design and am trying to check pile reactions using the bolt/rivet theory as described on the RM Wiki page: Abutment Design -- Pile Reaction calculation I have 2 questions: 1) I just wanted to quickly confirm the formula…

How does RC-Pier compute the two-shear footing demand for a pile footing? I have the following pile reactions. Even if I assume all the piles are outside the critical region and sum up all the max pile reactions, I get 1562.7 kips. However, the two…
