N2 - <p>This application predicts the remaining load bearing capacity of timber foundation piles over time, depending on the decay ratio, and the force applied over time. The model is calibrated for head/middle part and tapered end (tip) of the pile, whose mechanical properties inherently differ due to the tapered structure of the pile. It visualizes the applied stress, remaining cross-sectional area, and remaining load-bearing capacity (LBC), and potential pile failure over time. It can also generate a comprehensive PDF report with graphical and tabular results. </p>
