Stage Settings

The frame "Stage settings" serves to input settings valid for a given construction stage.

The selected design situation determines the safety coefficients to be used in the analysis of a given construction stage.

The frame view depends on the selected verification methodology.

Next, the frame serves to specify the type of pressure acting on a wall based on the allowable wall deformation. Providing the wall is free to move, an active pressure is assumed, otherwise, a pressure at rest is used. The third option enables to load the wall by increased active pressure.

The reduction of soil/soil friction angle can be considered in one of following ways:

  • do not reduce
  • reduce to 2/3φ (AASHTO)
  • reduce to 0
  • input reduction coefficient
