Reinforcement group and Type of reinforcement

• a combo list contains reinforcement group and individual types of reinforcements from a database, or its allows for inputting the "user-defined" type of reinforcement

Short-term characteristic strength

• the strength value can be changed only for reinforcements stored with the help of "User's catalog"

Analysis of long-term strength

• a combo list enables to choose the way of analysis of long-term strength: "input reduction factors" (direct input of factors), "calculate reduction factors" (factors are determined based on the selected lifetime of a reinforcement, soil Ph and grain size) or "input strength" (already reduced long-term strength is input)

Reduction factors

• the values of factors reducing a short-term tensile strength - can be input directly or calculated based on the selected options in combo lists (lifetime, chemistry, grain size)

Overall coefficient of model uncertainty

• the value of factor to reduce a short-term strength is input

Long-term design strength

• calculated value of a long-term tensile strength

Slip resistance

• the "Coefficient of direct slip along reinforcement" can be input directly or calculated based on the type of soil

Pull out resistance

• the "Coefficient of the interaction of soil and geo-reinforcement" can be input directly or calculated based on the type of soil

Connection strength

• can be input directly or calculated based on the magnitude of normal force between blocks: R_con=R_con,min+N.tanα ≤ R_con,max
