To use the software in a correct manner it is necessary to respect some rules, listed below:
1. | Reference system: the slope must be defined in the positive quadrant of a Cartesian reference system X, Y. |
2. | The Y dimension must be increasing from left to right. |
3. | The sections inserted according to other reference systems than the one imposed may be mirrored using the command Mirror. |
4. | The distance between the minimum ordinate Y of the profile's vertices and the depth of the bedrock constitutes a constraint on the research of the safety factor (will not be taken into consideration the sliding surfaces that cut the aforementioned). |
5. | The geotechnical characteristics of the layers that make up the slope to be examined should be assigned starting from the upper layer to the lower one. |
