4 Analysis & Results

4.1 Midas Model

Analysis of friction slab is done in Midas Civil software. 25 m Length of Wall with Base slab are modelled using plate elements.
The results from Midas such as Bending moments and Shear force for ULS and SLS Case are extracted and are used for design
of structural elements using spread sheet.
