Minimum Vertical Direct Stress Distribution at Base Formula Elements

Variables
Minimum Vertical Direct Stress
Minimum vertical direct stress is the stress which is induced due to the applied load when it is perpendicular to the body or structure.
Symbol: ρmin
Measurement: StressUnit: kN/m²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Total Vertical Force
Total vertical force forces that act in the vertical plane, which is perpendicular to the ground.
Symbol: Σv
Measurement: ForceUnit: kN
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Base Width
Base width is the maximum thickness or width of a dam measured horizontally between upstream and downstream faces and normal to the axis.
Symbol: B
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Eccentricity of Resultant Force
Eccentricity of Resultant Force is a force that does not pass through the Centre of gravity of the body on which it acts or through a point at which the body is fixed.
Symbol: e
