Graph Pile Stiffness
The Graph Pile Stiffness option (right-click on a pile and select Graph Pile Stiffness), allows users to view graphs of each stiffness value vs the loading component.
The stiffness matrix analysis is carried out based on the input entered in the Pile Head Stiffness Matrix Analysis dialog.
Nine graphs are displayed:
- Pile Head Deflection Z vs. K11 (Pz / Z)
- Pile Head Deflection X vs. K22 (Hx / X)
- Pile Head Rotation Y vs. K23 (Hx / Rot. Y)
- Pile Head Deflection X vs. K32 (Mxz / X)
- Pile Head Rotation Y vs. K33 (Mxz / Rot. Y)
- Pile Head Deflection Y vs. K44 (Hy / Y)
- Pile Head Rotation X vs. K45 (Hy / Rot. X)
- Pile Head Rotation X vs. K55 (Myz / Rot. X)
- Pile Head Deflection Y vs. K54 (Myz / Y)
CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
The following customization options can be found in the left sidepane of the Chart view:
- Chart Controls - This is where marker and line options, legend display options, font options and axis options are customized. These customizations apply to both the right and left graphs as a whole.
- Series Options - This is where the graph color, marker type and marker size can be customized for each set of results.
- Vertical Axis Options - The vertical axis of each individual graph can be customized here in terms of scaling.
- Horizontal Axis Options - The horizontal axis of each individual graph can be customized here in terms of scaling.
