Grade Resistance Factor in Geotechnical Engineering Formulas

Grade Resistance Factor is a parameter used to account for the effect of the slope (or grade) of the terrain on the resistance of soil or other materials to sliding or deformation. And is denoted by R_g. Grade Resistance Factor is usually measured using the Newton per Kilogram for Gravitational Field Intensity. Note that the value of Grade Resistance Factor is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Grade Resistance Factor?

Grade Resistance Factor is a parameter used to account for the effect of the slope (or grade) of the terrain on the resistance of soil or other materials to sliding or deformation. Grade Resistance Factor is usually measured using the Newton per Kilogram for Gravitational Field Intensity. Note that the value of Grade Resistance Factor is always positive.

Can the Grade Resistance Factor be negative?

No, the Grade Resistance Factor, measured in Gravitational Field Intensity cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Grade Resistance Factor?

Grade Resistance Factor is usually measured using the Newton per Kilogram[N/Kg] for Gravitational Field Intensity. Newton per Gram[N/Kg], Newton per Milligram[N/Kg] are the few other units in which Grade Resistance Factor can be measured.
