Nemetschek Frilo GmbH - Applications for structural calculation and design
FDB
Pad Foundation
The FDB application allows you
to design block foundations.
Block foundations are cast with
a bucket.
They are characterized by a
toothed connection between
the bucket wall and the column
base. This connection has the
same effect as if the column
was fitted with a monolithic
foundation.
The design of the block foundation is performed separately for
axial force and moment.

Design for axial force
In contrast to isolated foundations, the design for axial force
acting on the block foundation
is performed for the section
along the column edge. The
bending design resulting from
the axial force is performed in
accordance with leaflet 240, P.
2.10. The values are put out
separately for the x and y direction.
Design for moment
The design for the moment is
performed on the equivalent
beam.
The width of the equivalent
beam is as follows for each of
the loading directions:
www.frilo.com
b= cx + hm or b = cy + hm.
In this equation, cx and cy refer
to the dimensions of the column
and hm to the effective height.
The reinforcement resulting
from the design is distributed
over half the width of the
equivalent beam and runs upwards at the corresponding
side of the bucket serving as a
connecting reinforcement.
The punching shear analysis is
performed in the state of assembly as well as in the final
state in accordance with
DIN 1045, Paragraph 22.5 or
DAfStb 1, Booklet 240, Paragraph 2.5. The decisive reduced shear force Qred is calculated by reducing the existing
column load by the reaction
force of the soil pressure portion attributed to the base surface of the punching cone.
As of: 14/11/2012
In addition, the compressions

are determined in accordance
with DIN 1054 and the location
of the gaping joint is assessed.
You can define result load
cases and superposition load
cases.
Result load cases
(design)
Loads for result load cases
must be entered with consideration to the safety factor.
Result load cases have been
produced in the calculation of
another component. Under
normal conditions, they result
from a superposition Result
load cases are not superimposed.
Superposition load cases
In addition to result load cases,
the application is also familiar
with superposition load cases.
A permanent or variable action
was assigned to these load
cases.
You must enter the 1.0-fold
value for these loads.
The application superimposes
these load cases.
This means that they do not
include any second-order
loads.
In accordance with DIN 1045 1, the design is performed for
the decisive superposition
combination whereby the application includes the decisive
variable load case with 1.0
Gamma.
You can include the following
load types in the calculation:
Vertical concentrated load V
applying at the point ax/ay,
Horizontal loads Hx and Hy
External moments Mx and My
Earth top load and additional
uniformly distributed load
acting on the foundation surface and additional vertical
concentrated loads applying
at freely selectable points.
"Block foundations for

poles...." option
Restrained block foundations
for poles, signs, signal boards
and noise-protection walls are
block foundations embedded in
the ground. The loading is applied via a moment in the first
place. Their stability is ensured
by the earth resistance.
The serviceability analysis of
these foundations is performed
in accordance with the subgrade reaction modulus method
published by Sulzberger in
Switzerland in 1945.
The stability analysis of these
foundations in performed in
accordance with an article published by Sebastian Steckner in
the magazine Bautechnik
(66/1989). In this article, he
corrects the discrepancies in
Sulzberger's theory and makes
clear what happens in the transition area when the base friction is overcome. Furthermore,
he enhances Sulzberger's
method in regard to sloped
ground surfaces and establishes a relation between the
subgrade reaction modulus and

the earth pressure coefficient.
These improvements are implemented in the software application.
Interface to the soil failure
analysis GBR
If the soil failure application
(GBR) is installed, you can
transfer data from the foundation application to it and vice
versa.
