FoSSA

The FoSSA 1.0 program computes the lateral and vertical foundation stresses and the magnitude and time rate of settlement resulting from roadway loading conditions (earth retaining structures, embankments, and all forms of temporary and permanent loads). The program uses analytical soil mechanics theories to solve one- and three- dimensional deformations based on the application of applied loads of varied geometry, intensity, and orientations. It can consider the effects of staged construction and prefabricated vertical drains (PVD's). The program is designed to be a production tool that is both user friendly and technically sophisticated. The input screens are created to address simple and complex problems. The output is extensive and is provided in both a graphical and tabular format
