With the Well Foundation Parameters command, the design parameters used in the Concrete Well Foundation Design are determined. Concrete cover, maximum and minimum reinforcement interval, etc. parameters are determined from the Well Basic parameters window.
Location of Well Foundation Parameters Dialog
Ribbon menu Analysis and Design tab Design Parameters title under well foundation parameters by clicking on the command Well Foundation Parameters can be found in the dialogue.
Well Foundation Parameters
It determines with parameters which criteria the program will comply with in concrete design and rebar placement stage.
Specifications |
|---|
Concrete cover  It is the distance from the center of gravity of the rebar to the outer face of the concrete. |
Overturning safety factor  Give the overturning safety factor according to with/without earthquake conditions. |
Slip safety factor  Give the slip safety factor according to with/without earthquake conditions. |
Downfall safety factor  Give the safety factor for the downfall. |
Min. tensile percentage  In the tensile zone, give the minimum percentage value to be used in the rebar calculation. The entered value is multiplied by the sectional area and the rebar selection is made in a way that is not less than the result. |
Min. tensile interval  In the tensile zone, give the smallest possible distance between two rebars. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of rebar. |
Max. tensile interval  In the tensile zone, give the value of the greatest possible distance between two rebars. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of rebar. |
Min. transverse percentage  Give the minimum percentage value to be used in horizontal rebars. The entered value is multiplied by the sectional area and the rebar selection is made in a way that is not less than the result. |
Min. transverse interval  Give the smallest possible distance between two rebars to be used in horizontal rebars. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of rebar. |
Max. transverse interval  Give the maximum possible distance between two rebars to be used in horizontal rebars. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of rebar. |
Min. compression percentage  In the pressure zone, give the minimum percentage value to be used in rebar calculation. The entered value is multiplied by the sectional area and the rebar selection is made in a way that is not less than the result. |
Min. compression interval  Give the smallest possible distance between two rebars in the pressure zone. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of rebar. |
Max. compression interval  Give the maximum possible distance between two rebars in the pressure zone. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of rebar. |
