Verification according to the theory of limit states

When running verification analysis according to "Limit states", it is possible to introduce the required value of design coefficients in the frame "Settings". 

The program performs verification of the compression pile as:

where: Rc - pile compressive resistance
Rb - pile base resistance
Rs - pile shaft resistance
γb - partial factor on pile base resistance
γs - partial factor on pile shaft resistance
Vd - extreme vertical load acting on a pile
Wp - pile self-weight

For tension pile the following verification applies:

where: Rsdt - pile tensile resistance
Rs - pile shaft resistance
γst - partial factor on tensile pile shaft resistance
Vd - extreme vertical load acting on a pile
Wp - pile self-weight
