Sand-gravel cushion

The "Sand-gravel cushion" frame allows for inputting parameters of the sand-gravel cushion below foundation. The cushion thickness and overhang over foundation edge are required. The values can be edited either in the frame by inserting values into input fields, or on the desktop with the help of active dimensions.

The cushion filling can be selected from a combo list that contains soils specified in the frame "Soils".

The inputted sand-gravel cushion influences the analysis of both the foundation load bearing capacity and settlement.
