GGU-LATPILE: Step 11: Evaluate and visualise the results

After leaving the info box all governing analysis parameters are displayed on the screen for the whole pile length:

Figure 3 Visualisation of results

• Input subgrade reaction modulus profile,

• Computed subgrade reaction modulus profile,

• Active and passive earth pressures,

• Moment profile,

• Shear force profile,

• Axial force profile,

• Deflection profile.

The graphical visualisation, apart from showing the system, also contains other elements (referred to as legends) which contain further information and user input:

• General legend
  This legend contains general information on the system.

• Soil properties legend
  This legend contains data relating to the properties of every defined soil type.

• Design legend
  This legend contains all data relating to design of steel sections or the cross-section of the analysed reinforced concrete pile.

• Subgrade modulus legend
  The legend shows the specified subgrade reaction moduli along the pile section defined for the subgrade reaction modulus profile.

You can print the diagram on the printer (menu item "File/Print and export"), as well as a comprehensive table of data (menu item "File/Print output table").

Using the program's zoom function, you can zoom in on selected sections of the graphics. If you double click with the left mouse button over a particular section of the graphics, the corresponding state variables will appear in an info box.

You can add further explanations or comments to the graphics using the Mini-CAD module. Save your work to data file by selecting "File/Save as" .
