GGU-AXPILE: Define soils (Example 2)

Use the values of the existing soils layers in the menu item "Edit/Soils".

If you would like to edit the number of soils, select the "Edit no. of soils" button and then enter the new number of soils. Using the "Sort" button, you can have the soils sorted according to depth. This sorting will be carried out automatically when leaving the dialog box, without the function being explicitly called-up. Erroneous input is thus impossible from the outset.

Explanations of the soil properties can be found directly in the dialog box and in the theoretical principles in Section “Pile design to EAP: General information on piles according to EA piles”). If the check box in the "Table values" group box is activated, the skin friction is interpolated even for a cone pressure qc < 7.5 MN/m² or a shear strength cu,k < 60 MN/m². Otherwise, the skin friction is set to 0.

The data for unit weights and friction angles are only required when working with tension piles. They are therefore not represented in the dialog box shown above.
