e > ecrit , Large Eccentricity Case There is Tendency To Overturn. Anchor Rods are Required for Moment Equilibrium.

Compute Y & T :
f =
Y= T= 18.86 Cm f = N/2-X1 OK
Small Eccentricity Case

Real Solution for Y Exists When e > ecrit.

Y = ( N - 2e ), When e ecrit. Y = ( f + N/2 ) - [( f + N/2 ) - 2P(e +f ) / qmax] ^ , When e > ecrit. T (Anchor Rod Tension) = qmax * Y - P , When e > ecrit.

Check Bearing Pressure :

F p (Actual Compression Stress) = 0.70 Kn/Cm2 OK, p(max) Cont. Fp = P/(Y*B) , When e ecrit. Fp = p(max) , When e > ecrit.

b) Base Plate Yeilding Limit at Tension Interface:

The Tension Force T in The Anchor Rods Will Cause Bending in The Base Plate. Cantilever Action is Conservatively assumed With The Span Length Equals to X.
