Embankment module

 

Using this module can be calculated the settlement of embankments with the oedometric method.

Pressure imposed on embankment: loads acting on the embankment (roads, etc.)

Set excavation base level: depth of the foundation. Net increment to base plan  will be automatically calculated by the program.

Distance: Axis - IV point, free choice: the settlements are calculated in Axis, Center, Foot and a point chosen by the user, the IV point, for which is entered the "Distance axis IV point".

As input data of the stratigraphy must be assigned: the oedometric modulus and the overconsolidation ratio.
