Specifies the value used to calculate the soil restraint stiffness. This value must be greater than 0.0. This option displays only when you select CAESAR II Basic Model in the Soil Model Type list.

The yield displacement factor is inversely proportional to the soil restraint stiffness. By default, the yield displacement depth of 1.5% of the buried depth is used, which translates to a yield displacement factor of 0.015.
