Conclusions
-
1.
The analytical method presented above for determining the necessary anchoring force T for a given factor of safety, based on the polygon of forces method, permits a rather rapid detemination of the magnitude and direction of this force.
-
2.
Using the functions obtained, we can determine by trial and error the value of the factor of safety against sliding of a block in a natural (unprotected) state.
-
3.
Programming of the analytical solution obtained on a digital computer greatly reduces the time necessary for performing the calculations.
