~EFSAPPL

 

~EFSAPPL, UFOUND, VALUE

Applies the calculated ballast module to the foundation elements

PREP7: GEOTECHNICAL MODULE: EFS

UFOUND

User’s number of the foundation to be defined.

VALUE

 Ballast module value to be applied:

0 

Average value (by default)

1  

Minimum value

2

Maximum value

3

Real values. One value for each element.

Notes

- If the maximum, minimum or average ballast module is applied, it is necessary to previously define the set of real constants of all the elements, because the program changes the EFS value in these real constants.

- If the real value is applied, a different EFS value will be used on each element. If the elements have the same real constant group assigned (or no real constants), CivilFEM will automatically create the needed real constant groups and assign them to the elements.
