Check for tearing:

where:

Fx

-

force developed in reinforcement

Rt

-

long-term design strength of reinforcement

SFst

-

safety factor for geo-reinforcement strength (input in the "Wall analysis" tab)

Check for pull-out:

where:

Fx

-

force developed in reinforcement

Tp

-

bearing capacity of reinforcement against pull-out

SFpo

-

safety factor for pull out resistance of geo-reinforcement (input in the frame "Wall analysis" tab)
