Introduction

Shaft 1-2-3 is a macro-driven Excel spreadsheet which utilizes VBA programming for calculating ungrouted and grouted drilled shaft capacities. It includes different analysis methods for sand, clay, silt, and limestone. Shaft 1-2-3 was developed in conjunction with a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) study to help quickly determine the feasability of post grouting drilled shafts in various soil types.

General Worksheet

The programs only needs a few user defined parameters and a standard SPT boring log to calculate capacities.

Boring Log Worksheet

The design capacities are based on the mobilized capacities from Reese & O'Neill 1988 study of load tranfser in drilled shafts.

Capacity Graph

A full Commentary can be found within the spreadsheet.
