GGU-SETTLE: "Subgrade reaction contours" menu item

This menu item allows the presentation of the subgrade reaction moduli from calculated settlements in a contour plan. Further, the program creates a triangle mesh from all calculated settlements. However, only those settlement points which lie within the foundation are considered, as the subgrade reaction modulus results from the division of the foundation stress at the point in question by the corresponding settlement value. The thus created triangle mesh, which has nothing to do with the interpolation mesh for the constrained modulus profiles, is used by the program as the basis of interpolation for contour calculation.

After going to this menu item a dialog box opens which is analogous to the settlement contour visualisation dialog box.

Visualisation of the foundation mesh and node labelling can be selected for triangular foundations. Otherwise, you have two buttons available for the type of contour visualisation:

  • "Normal"
    The preferences for normal contour visualisation are analogous to the descriptions in Section “Normal settlement contours”.

  • "Coloured"
    The preferences for coloured contour visualisation are analogous to the descriptions in Section “Coloured settlement contours”.
