 GENERAL CALCULATION ASSUMPTIONS
DEEPxcav is a program that simulates the behavior of flexible vertical retaining walls. With DeepXcav it is possible to
simulate all the different stages of an excavation.
The program is able to perform both classical limit-equilbrium as well non linear analysis solutions.
For the non linear analysis a FEM model is used. The FEM model follow the well known beam on elasto plastic foundation
approach. The wall is modeled using BEAM elements, the soil is simulate using a double system (for each part of the wall)
of elasto plastic springs with
an spring connected on each node of the beam elements.
The excavation analysis can be performed performed through the following analysis methods:
1) Classic analysis with limit-equilbrium.
2) Non linear analysis : every stage represents an excavation phase with a defined configurations of excavations, loads,
etc.
3) Bracing supports in the non-linear analysis have to be activated in a separate stage.
The non linear analysis has been performed using a full Newthon Raphson approach.

DESIGN CODES
Available structural codes (for determining the structural capacity of walls and supports) are:
- AISC ASD 9th Edition, 1989
- AISC LRFD 2nd Edition, 2003
- AISC LRFD 3rd Edition, 2008
- ACI 318-2008
- CSLP, "Istruzioni per l'applicazione delle Notme tecniche per le costruzioni di cui al DM 14/1/2008"
- DM 2008 - "Norme tecniche per le costruzioni"
- EC2 1-1 :2004, Eurocode 2 - Design of concrete structures
- Ec3 1-1:2005, Eurocodice 3 - Design of steel structures
- Ec3 5:2002, Eurocodice 3 - Design of steel sheet piles walls
- Ec8:2004 - Seismic design of structures
In some cases, overall safety factors may have to be applied when using codes that produce ultimate capacities.
These safety factors can be changed in the design tab.

NOTES: Calculation warnings

These calculation warnings include a series of diagnostic checks and may or may not be applicable.
Also, the reported warnings may not include all critical items that have to be reviewed. Other checks can be reviewed
from the summary tables and individual reports for each design section. Additional checks and verifications may be
required. All items have to be reviewed and accepted by a professional engineer in accordance with the E.U.L.A.
