Mobilization of earth resistance
Forces acting on the structure
Verification according to the Safety Factors (ASD) methodology:
Verification according to the EB9/EB84 methodology:
where: | SFf | - | required safety factor for the mobilization of earth resistance |
Pv | - | permanent vertical load | |
Av | - | vertical forces from anchors | |
G | - | self-weight of wall | |
Eav | - | friction force behind the wall | |
Bv | - | friction force in front of the wall |
