Checks and cautions
Member utilisation as the engine computes it. Cautions are checks that pass, but with a small margin.
- Embedment, mmThe footing resists wind uplift at above 80 % utilisation, or it is shallower than the frost depth. The soil resistance in the calculation is an estimate — check the soil on site.Kherson: Foundation Ø350 × 1 100: 0.106 m³ of concrete per post. Wind uplift on the front post ≈ 10.9 kN (with γ=1.5) vs ≈ 11.4 kN (concrete weight + soil friction, estimate) → 96%.Cherkasy: Foundation Ø350 × 1 100: 0.106 m³ of concrete per post. Wind uplift on the front post ≈ 9.5 kN (with γ=1.5) vs ≈ 11.4 kN (concrete weight + soil friction, estimate) → 84%.Chernihiv: Foundation Ø300 × 1 300: 0.092 m³ of concrete per post. Wind uplift on the front post ≈ 9.3 kN (with γ=1.5) vs ≈ 11.2 kN (concrete weight + soil friction, estimate) → 83%.
