Verification According to the Theory of Limit States

When running the verification analysis according to the theory of limit states, it is possible to introduce the required values of design coefficients in the "Piles" tab.

The program performs verification of the compression pile as:

where:

Rc

-

pile compressive resistance

Rb

-

pile base resistance

Rs

-

pile shaft resistance

γb

-

partial factor on pile base resistance

γs

-

partial factor on pile shaft resistance

Vd

-

extreme vertical load acting on a pile

Wp

-

pile self-weight

For tension pile the following verification applies:

where:

Rsdt

-

pile tensile resistance

Rs

-

pile shaft resistance

γst

-

partial factor on tensile pile shaft resistance

Vd

-

extreme vertical load acting on a pile

Wp

-

pile self-weight
