Vertical bearing capacity – analysis based on classical theory

The "Vertical bearing capacity" frame serves to verify the vertical bearing capacity of a pile. Several analyses can be carried out in the frame. The verification can be performed for individual loads, or the program locates the most critical one (can be selected from a combo list). The frame appearance changes depending on the setting in the frame "Analysis methods".

The analysis is performed based on the theory defined in the frame "Analysis methods" (NAVFAC DM 7.2, Tomlinson, Effective stress method, CSN 73 1002). Parameters needed in individual methods are specified in the bottom part of the frame.

Verification analysis is performed based on the methodology selected in the frame "Analysis methods" (classical approach, EN 1997-1).

The "In detail" button opens the dialog window containing detailed listing of the verification results.

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