Horizontal Stress- Metal Mats: In results, when at the Strength dialog and clicking on any reinforcement numeral, the horizontal stress distribution along the internal slip surface is displayed. This stress includes the effects of surcharge and when multiplied by the tributary area, it yields Tmax for each layer. Note the bilinear shape of internal slip surface in metals. Also note the nonlinear stress distribution - it is a consequence of the specified K/Ka which decreases with depth. |
