2nd stage of construction - analysis

The procedure is identical with the 1st stage – select the mode "Analysis" and then press the "Analyze" button to carry out the calculation. When the analysis is completed the program displays the deformed mesh and the distribution of the total vertical normal stress.

Analysis results: 2nd stage of construction – Sigma Z – total vertical normal stress

To view the distribution of the vertical displacement you switch to "Displ. dz". The result appears in the following figure.

2nd stage of construction – vertical displacement due to surcharge2nd stage of construction – vertical displacement due to surcharge

As evident from the color scheme the maximum vertical displacement is 106,9 mm. To view the same results after unloading we add a new (third) construction stage.
