Verification According to the Safety Factors
When running the verification analysis according to the factor of safety, it is possible to introduce the required value of factor safety SF for the vertical bearing capacity in the "Piles" tab.
The program performs verification of vertical bearing capacity of compression pile as:
where: | Vd | - | extreme vertical load acting on a pile |
Rc | - | pile compressive resistance | |
Wp | - | pile self-weight (introduction into the analysis based on the setting in the frame "Load") |
and for tension pile:
where: | Vd | - | extreme vertical load acting on a pile |
Rst | - | pile tensile resistance | |
Wp | - | pile self-weight |
