Correction Factor for Circle and Square Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Correction Factor Nq = 1+tan(Angle of Internal Friction)
N _q = 1+tan(φ)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 2 Variables

Functions Used

tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)

Variables Used

Correction Factor Nq - Correction Factor Nq is the function of angle of internal friction Ø.
Angle of Internal Friction - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Internal Friction is the angle measured between the normal force and resultant force.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Angle of Internal Friction: 46 Degree --> 0.802851455917241 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N _q = 1+tan(φ) --> 1+tan(0.802851455917241)
