Verification based on limit states

The program performs verification analysis of the micropile tube and root:

Verification of the cross-section (tube)

Both, internal stability of section and coupled section bearing capacity, are verified.

1. Internal stability of section

where: Nmax - maximal normal force, entered in the frame "Load"
Ncrd - design critical normal force

where: Ncr - standard critical normal force, calculated in dependence on the method set in the frame "Analysis methods"
γmf - reduction coefficient of critical force, entered in the frame "Settings" (limit states)

2. Coupled section bearing capacity

where: σs - stress in steel, calculated according to the way of loading (section loaded only by normal force or by combination of bending moment and normal force)
Rsd - design strength of steel

where: Rs - standard strength of steel, entered in the frame "Material"
γms - reliability coefficient of steel, entered in the frame "Settings" (limit states)

Verification of the root

where: Nmax - maximal normal force, entered in the frame "Load"
Qrd - design root bearing capacity

where: Q - standard root bearing capacity, calculated in dependence on used method (see "Bearing capacity of the micropile root section")
γmr - reduction coefficient of root resistance, entered in the frame "Settings" (limit states)
