• The inclination of the foundation base:

• The shape of foundation:

for a rectangular shape;

B' B' sq N q − 1
sq = 1 + sin  ' s = 1 − 0.3 sc =
L' L' Nq − 1

for a square or circular shape;

sq N q − 1
sq = 1 + sin  ' s = 0.7 sc =
Nq − 1

• The inclination of the load, caused by a horizontal load H:

 H 

2 + B '/ L '
m = mB = H acts in the direction of B’ ( H = H B' )
1 + B '/ L '

2 + L '/ B '
m = mL = H acts in the direction of L’ ( H = H L' )
1 + L '/ B '

In case the horizontal load acts in the two directions ( H 2 = H B'2 + H L2' )

m = mB + mL
