===To calculate the total depth of the foundations (all aggregate layers)===
===To calculate the total depth of the foundations (all aggregate layers)===
The equation for the depth of the stone foundation (d<sub>f, max</sub>) is as follows:
The equation for the depth of the stone foundation (''d<sub>f, max</sub>'', mm) is as follows:
<math>d_{f, max}=\frac{\left[\left ( Q_c\times R \right )+ P-\left(f'\times t\right )\right]}{V_{R}}</math>
<math>d_{f, max}=\frac{\left[\left ( RVC_{T}\times R \right )+ RVC_{T}-\left(f'\times t\right )\right]}{V_{R}}</math>
