Static Equilibrium

The design of the limit state of the static equilibrium is carried out according to EN 1997‑1[1] 2.4.7.2 as follows:

E_{dst;d} \leq E_{stb;d} + T_{d}

E_stb;d	Design value of the effect of stabilising actions
E_dst;d	Design value of the effect of destabilising actions
T_d	Design value of the total shear resistance
