STAAD Foundation Advanced V8i - Passive Pressure Setting

$
0
0

In the Global Settings Tab, under "Rigid Foundation Settings" there is a button for including "Passive Pressure Setting" to use in the check for sliding for isolated footings.  This button seems to be "un-checkable" and therefore I cannot use passive pressure in the calculations.  I think I can reduce my footing sizes if I could use some of the passive pressure for resistance.

 

Is there a reason this button is "un-checkable?"  Perhaps I need to turn on additional setting?  Any information would be helpful.

 

Thanks!
