For the analysis of the model, it is necessary to define two layers of material.

 

A first layer of elevation material, according to which the thrusts are calculated

A second layer of foundation material, according to which the limit load of the foundation is calculated

 

For both layers, the user must enter the following quantities:

 

Material name

 

The name identifying the material

 

Weight [kN/m³]

 

The unit weight of the dry material

 

Saturated Weight [kN/m³]

 

The unit weight of the saturated material

 

Fi [°]

 

Angle of resistance to shearing stress of the soil

 

C [kN/m²]

 

Soil cohesion

 

Delta [°]

 

Angle of friction on the wall-soil interface

 

Adhesion [kN/m²]

 

Wall-soil adhesion
