This application permits the
computation of the marginal load
according to Terzaghi, Meyerhof,
Hansen and Vesic, Richards et. al, for calculating the bearing capacity
factors, according to the indications relevant t the geotechnical planning in a
seismic zone, of elastic sagging
(Timoshenko and Goodier), edometric,
and Schmertmann calculation.
Seismic corrections according to
Vesic e Sano can be applied.
Calculation based either on weighted
average or on borehole results.
Deformation calculation for any
point within or outside the
foundation.
Foundation at inclined base and
subject to eccentric loads.
GENERAL FEATURES

Ring foundation;
Bearing capacity according to:
Terzaghi, Meyerhof, Hansen, Vesic,
Zienkiewicz.
Settlement: Elastic, Edometric
Burland and Burbidge Schmertmann.
Settlement differences
Seismic corrections according to:
Vesic, Sano
Analysis in relation to total and
effective tension;
Display of tensional state and
tension bulb;
Computation of tension status
induced by external loads at any
point;
Nspt correlation with geotechnic
parameters according to Meyerhof,
Sanglerat, & Peck, Hanson and

using the process developed by Seed
e Idriss (1971, 1982)
