Bearing Resistance Calculations

Pad Properties
X Axis Distance to Edgex = L / 2 + Ex = 1000 mm
Y Axis Distance to Edgey = W / 2 + Ey = 1000 mm
Pad Effective LengthLeff = min(d, L / 2 + Offx - Lbp) + min(d, L / 2 - Offx - Lbp) =  2000 mm
Pad Effective WidthWeff = min(d, W / 2 + Offy - Wbp) + min(d, W / 2 - Offy - Wbp) =  2000 mm
