*PIPE-SOIL STIFFNESS
7. Second field variable.
8. Third field variables.
Subsequent lines (only needed if the DEPENDENCIES parameter has a value greater than three):
1. Fourth field variable.
2. Etc., up to eight field variables per line.
Repeat this set of data lines as often as necessary to define the parameters for the ASCE formulae as a
function of temperature and other predefined field variables.
Data lines to define constitutive behavior using the ASCE formula for sand in the vertical
direction (TYPE=SAND, DIRECTION=VERTICAL):
First line:
1. Total unit weight of soil, .
2. Bearing capacity factor, .
3. Bearing capacity factor, .
4. Vertical uplift factor, .
5. Ultimate relative displacement for downward motion, .
6. Ultimate relative displacement for upward motion, .
7. Temperature.
8. First field variable.
Subsequent lines (only needed if the DEPENDENCIES parameter has a value greater than one):
1. Second field variable.
2. Etc., up to eight field variables per line.
Repeat this set of data lines as often as necessary to define the parameters for the ASCE formulae as a
function of temperature and other predefined field variables.
Data lines to define constitutive behavior using the ASCE formula for clay in the vertical
direction (TYPE=CLAY, DIRECTION=VERTICAL):
First line:
1. Bearing capacity factor, .
2. Vertical uplift factor, .
3. Ultimate relative displacement for downward motion, .
4. Ultimate relative displacement for upward motion, .
5. Temperature.
