  • The support force diagrams represent the available support force which can be mobilized by a support element, at any point along the length of the support.
  • If a slip surface intersects a support element, the magnitude of the support force which is applied to the slip surface is determined by the magnitude of the force diagram at the point of intersection.
  • When the support force diagrams are displayed, each failure mode is displayed using a different colour on the support force diagrams.
  • For a complete description of how the support force diagrams are determined in Slide3 for each type of support see the Define Support topic.
