Corrective factor for finite depth of layer on a rigid base Rh

The corrective factor Rh represents the influence of incompressible layer below the pile base. Its values are again presented in the literature graphically for various pile length to pile diameter ratios (l/d) and ratios of pile length to thickness of compressible layer above the incompressible layer (l/h or h/l). The graphs are implemented in the program in a digital format.
