13.For pile cap analysis see: http://www.fseas.info/sipilec.htm

14.STM method for pile caps may result in more flexural reinforcement than what one would have
obtained by using beam theory. However, no shear reinforcement will be required. STM method
requires reinforcement to be distributed in bands. Nominal reinforcement is required to be provided in
other areas for serviceability considerations. Please refer Nori, V.V. and M.S. Tharval's paper in ICJ,April
