Determination of Foundation Parameters Based on Soil Data
RF-SOILIN | Features
- Realistic representation of interaction between a building and soil
- Extensible library of soil properties
- Consideration of several soil samples (probes) at different locations, even outside the building
- Consideration of groundwater level as well as side effects due to excavation and lowest soil layer being solid
- Calculation of elastic foundation coefficients
- Determination and graphical display of stress diagrams and settlements in grid points
RF-SOILIN | Input
The definition of soil layers is performed in a clearly arranged input window. An extensible library facilitates the selection of soil properties.
The elasticity can be defined either by the stiffness modulus or the modulus of elasticity and the Poisson's ratio. It is possible to define any number of soil layers. You can assign the layers to the building graphically or by entering the relevant coordinates.
RF-SOILIN | Calculation
Elastic foundation coefficients are calculated according to the non-linear iterative method. The module determines elastic foundation coefficients for each individual element. They are dependent on the deformation.
RF-SOILIN | Results
The calculated stresses and settlements are displayed in result windows. In addition, it is possible to evaluate the results graphically. The graphic displays the position and the layer arrangement of the soil samples to clarify the results.
The final result window shows the elastic foundation coefficients. Graphical evaluation is possible as well.
