1807.3.2.2 Constrained
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
The following formula shall be used to determine the depth of embedment required to resist lateral loads where lateral constraint is provided at the ground surface, such as by a rigid floor or pavement.
 | (Equation 18-2) |
or alternatively
 | (Equation 18-3) |
where:
| Mg | = | Moment in the post at grade, in foot-pounds (kN-m). |
| S3 | = | Allowable lateral soil-bearing pressure as set forth in Section1806.2 based on a depth equal to the depth of embedment in pounds per square foot (kPa). |
