Status	Commercial
Description	SETOFF analyzes foundation settlement by commonly accepted procedures in which the soil profile is divided into a number of layers, the average stress increase from all of the foundation-loaded area is determined for each layer, and the change in thickness for each layer is computed using the appropriate compressibility for the layer. The foundation settlement is the sum of the changes in the layer thicknesses. Settlements can be computed at up to 25 points due to loads from up to 50 loaded areas. The loaded areas may be rectangular and circular in shape, in any order and combination, and they may be placed at any depth. The applied pressure for a loaded area may be negative due to excavation. Subsurface conditions can be specified by up to 25 layers and by up to 10 soil compressibilities. The soil compressibility can be defined in three ways: i) semi-log percent vertical strain vs. log applied pressure curve defined by up to seven straight-line segments; ii) the slope of a semi-log percent vertical strain vs. log applied pressure curve; iii) the slope of an arithmetic percent vertical strain vs. applied pressure curve. The computations can be made using either U.S. or S.I. units. Output: Echo-print of input data; Average stress increase at different depths of soil deposits; Computed settlement for each specified location.
