Resisting Moments

This screen presents in tabular form each component contributing to resisting moment, giving weights and moment arms from the front edge of the toe to the centroid of the force.

Resisting/Overturning ratio is displayed.

 

The force and moment displayed at the bottom accounts for deduction of effect of vertical component, if box on the General tab has been checked.

 

For calculating the vertical component, if checked on the General tab, and if the EFP method was chosen, the program will back-solve using the Rankine formula to obtain an equivalent internal friction angle.
