Notes:
1. When comparing variables between the drawings and the output table use the following equalities:
Item Drawings Table
Traffic Surcharge s q
Surcharge force F1 qt
 Geostatic force F2 Ft
2. When present, traffic surcharge q1 acts over the reinforced soil mass and is used in case 1,
that is in the calculation of CDR for Bearing Resistance
3. When present, traffic surcharge q2 acts behind the reinforced soil mass and is used in all
CDR calculations
4. For infinite slopes (i.e., l >= 2*H) I =b in Ka calculation
