I thought it may be possible to manipulate the enercalc program to arrive at a solution. My thinking was I could set the maximum allowable passive pressure to the allowable concrete stress. I then set the allowable passive pressure higher than the max, so that the program automatically uses...

csd72, thanks for the tip. I will use that in my analysis.

Thanks for the quick response. Yes, I already have a soils report and was able to determine the depth of piers. I am asking how to find the required depth of the steel posts into the piers. To do this using Enercalc I need to change the allowable passive pressure to reflect that of concrete...

Hello, I am a Civil PE designing a cantilevered column for a freestanding solar array. The posts will be steel pipe and the foundations will be a drilled concrete pier. The client would prefer to embed the pipe steel into the concrete rather than using a base plate. I used Enercalc's...
