Settlement – linear loading curve (Poulos)

The "Settlement" frame serves to display the pile loading curve. More analyses can be performed in the frame. The combo list allows for choosing the type of pile (bored into compressible subsoil, bearer pile).

Next, it is necessary to enter the value of limit settlement. The program constructs the loading curve always such that this limit settlement is not exceeded.

The analysis is carried out according to the selected theory of settlement analysis (linear). The analysis theory is selected in the frame "Analysis methods". The table in the bottom part of the frame directly allows with the help of the mouse for editing the defined parameters. The "Edit Es" button opens the dialog window with a help section for parameters specifying the secant deformation modulus. Pressing the "OK" button in a particular window stores the inputted parameters for a given layer into the table. 

The analysis results are displayed in the right part of the desktop. The "In detail" button opens the dialog window containing detailed listing of the verification results.

The analysis results (loading curve) are displayed in the right part of the desktop. Visualization of the results can be adjusted in the "Visualization style settings" dialog window.
