Conclusions geo1.0 20/05/2008 LimitState:GEO launch & technology briefing - ICE London
Conclusions • Typical error in estimated collapse loads = 0 – 5% • For frictional soils, it is better to consider error in input parameters • Typical error in input parameters (cu or tanφ) = 0 – 2% LimitState:GEO results computed using Fine resolution. Accuracy may be improved by increasing resolution further. 20/05/2008 LimitState:GEO launch & technology briefing - ICE London
