A group of cell- phone antennas are to be installed on a single steel pole that will be embedded into a dense silty sand with Φ' = 35°. Near the ground surface this pole will be connected to a 24 in diameter drilled shaft. The resultant of the lateral wind load will be 600 lb and will act at a point 50 ft above the ground surface. Using a rigid analysis, compute the required depth of embedment and the maximum moment in the drilled shaft. Use a factor of safety of 3.0.
