A sliding analysis may be required if there is a large participation of horizontal forces acting on a foundation as
compared to vertical ones. Such a situation results in possible soil damage caused by sliding of the foundation
footing on the soil or sliding between the layers of soils when the lower-positioned layers are weaker than
those in direct contact with the footing.
(http://www.autodesk.com/)
In order to avoid the loss of sliding stability, the following solutions are recommended.
During sliding analysis, note that the cohesion of soil directly adjacent to a foundation may be changed in the
course of preparation works or because of varying location of the water level. In such cases a value of the soil
cohesion should be reduced.
Note: In the foundation module, the lateral pressure caused by displacement of a foundation is not taken into
account. This may result in undervaluing the sliding capacity of the foundation.
For all codes (except ACI, CSA, DTU 13.12 and Fascicule No 62 - Titre V) you can select the Sliding with soil
pressure considered option. The soil pressure Pa and the passive pressure Pp will be calculated additionally.
From the soil level to the shear plane (for continuous footings).
From the top surface of the spread footing base to the shear plane (for spread footings).
The load q must be constant and is multiplied by the augmentation factor. The algorithm for calculation of P a
is identical as for P p .
You can define a load acting on a specified quarter of a spread footing. The soil pressure acting from a
determined side will be calculated in proportion to the length of a selected quarter.
Sliding with soil pressure considered may be calculated for both directions simultaneously, or for each
separately. It is selected from the list for X and Y directions, for X direction, or for Y direction.
1. ACI \ CSA
Sliding design is not available for these codes. If required, check this value manually.
2. BS 8004:1986
The general condition of sliding stability is presented as follows.
H ≤ H FRICTION
where:
H FRICTION = V * tg(φ) + c * Ac
V - vertical force
c - cohesion
Design of this limit state results in the safety factor of a structure: H FRICTION / H. The value of which is
greater than or equal to 1.0.
Options in the Geotechnical options dialog enable the analysis of this limit state as well as determining the
(http://www.autodesk.com/)
limit value of the factor.
3. DTU 13.12
The general condition of sliding stability is presented as follows.
where:
N - vertical force
ϕ - internal friction angle of the soil, assuming that the adopted value of tg(ϕ) is not greater than 0.5
When a seismic impact occurs, the soil cohesion is disregarded (according to studies), resulting in the
reduction of the sliding formula to the following form.
During analysis of sliding between the foundation and the lean concrete ( not connected to the foundation
by means of the dowel bar reinforcement), concrete - lean concrete friction coefficient is introduced,
equaling 0.75.
If dowel bars ensure permanent connection between the foundation and lean concrete, this condition is not
checked.
Design for this limit state results in obtaining the safety factor of a structure: Qtf / Qf. The value of which is
greater than or equal to 1.0.
Turning on the analysis of this limit state as well as determining the limit value of the factor are enabled in
the Geotechnical options dialog.
where:
the coefficient j included in the interval <0.0, 1.0> may be defined in the Geotechnical options dialog.
If the coefficient 0.0 is introduced, this formula assumes the form exactly as specified in code (6.3).
5. EN 1997-1:2004 (EC 7)
The analysis of sliding is performed according to point 6.5.3.
Hd ≤ Rd + Rp;d
Basing on point A.2(2) which refers to the γ φ coefficient it was assumed that the calculation value of the
coefficient of friction amounts:
The tan d(http://www.autodesk.com/)
parameter which is a characteristic coefficient of friction soil - foundation is a soil property
saved in the soil base called Coefficient of friction.
The tan d parameter is taken for the foundation formed directly on soil, in accordance with the soil
database, where it should be defined according to the code on the base of the friction angle in critical
condition tan δ = tan φ cv 6.5.3 (10) i A.2(2). After the Smooth precast foundation 6.5.3(10) option is
activated in the Geotechnical options dialog according to 6.5.3 (10) and A.2(2), the value of the
coefficient is calculated in the following way:
The EC7 code does not recommend to consider soil cohesion in the sliding analysis 6.5.3 (10) though the
program allows such a possibility. Partial or complete use of the cohesion is possible by entering an
additional element to the formula (6.3a):
Rd = V'd * tgδ d + ξ * A c * c u
where:
the coefficient included in the interval <0.0, 1.0> may be defined in the Geotechnical options dialog
6. Fascicule 62 Titre V
The general condition of sliding stability is presented as follows.
where:
Qtf - Horizontal force.
(http://www.autodesk.com/)
N - Vertical force.
If a seismic impact occurs, the soil cohesion is disregarded (according to studies), resulting in the reduction
of the sliding formula to the following form.
During analysis of sliding between the foundation and the lean concrete ( not connected to the foundation
by means of the dowel bar reinforcement), concrete - lean concrete friction coefficient is introduced,
equaling 0.75.
If dowel bars ensure permanent connection between the foundation and lean concrete, this condition is not
checked.
Design for this limit state results in obtaining the safety factor of a structure: Qtf / Qf. The value of which is
greater than or equal to 1.0.
Turning on the analysis of this limit state as well as determining the limit value of the factor are enabled in
the Geotechnical options dialog.
7. PN-81/B-03020
The condition for foundation sliding is not provided directly in the code PN-81/B-03020 [A3]. The following
refers directly to the code PN-83/B-03010 [A4]. The general condition of sliding stability according to this
code and studies is presented as follows.
m - Correction factor.
As a result of the design of this limit state, the following safety factor of a structure is obtained:
Turning on the analysis of this limit state as well as determining the limit value of the factor are enabled in
the Geotechnical options dialog.
8. SNiP 2.02.01-83
The general condition of sliding stability is presented as follows.
where:
H - Horizontal force.
γc - Environment coefficient.
γ n - Reliability factor taking account of the use for which a structure is intended.
V - Vertical force.
As a result of design of this limit state, the following safety factor of a structure is obtained:
Turning on the analysis of this limit state as well as determining the limit value of the factor are enabled in
the Geotechnical options dialog.
