It shall be permitted to design a deep foundation member using allowable strength specified in ACI Table 13.4.2.1 if the two conditions given below are satisfied. If one of these two conditions is not satisfied, a depp foundation member should be designed using strength design in accordance with ACI 13.4.3.

According to ACI 13.4.6.3, pile caps should be designed such that condition 1 is satisfied for one-way foundations and condition 1 and condition 2 are satisfied for two-way foundations. These two conditions are given below,

  1. ϕVn ≥ Vu , where Vn should be calculated in accordance with One-Way Shear Strength title.

  2. ϕvn ≥ vu , where vn should be calculated in accordance with Two-Way Shear Strength title.

According to ACI 13.4.6.5, calculation of factored shear force one any pile cap section should be in accordance with conditions given below;
