Uplift Limit State

The uplift stability design must be performed according to EN 1997-1 [1] 2.4.7.4 in such a way that the design value of the combination of destabilizing permanent and variable vertical actions V_{dst;d is} less than or equal to sum of the design value of the stabilizing permanent vertical actions G_stb;d and the design value of any additional resistance R_d against uplift.

V_{dst;d} \leq G_{stb;d} + R_{d}

mit:

V_{dst;d} = |G_{dst;d} + Q_{dst;d}|

G_{stb;d} = G_{stb;k} \cdot γ_{G;stb}
