Module Summary

• Analyzes a pole footing embedded in soil and returns the minimum required embedment depth or the resulting pressures based on a user-specified embedment depth
• Evaluates round or square poles
• Provides option to consider restraint at ground surface
• Offers two options to limit the maximum allowable lateral bearing pressure
• Permits the application of lateral concentrated loads, lateral distributed loads, applied moments, and vertical loads
• Offers the convenience of fill-in-the-blanks style forms and instantaneous recalculation to facilitate the evaluation of “what-if” scenarios
• Provides highly efficient results summaries as well as generous detail in the on-screen and printed results
• Includes rich, 3D graphics that support zoom, pan, and many customizable view options.
