Soil pressure and depth vector to resultant vector

Hi

I'm trying to compute soil pressure resultants from soil pressure and depth vector.

The problem is that the resultant vector should have fewer rows than are in the depth and in the pressure vectors.

The solutions should be made in a way that it works for n-layers.

Thank you for help in advance.

Your sheet is quite a mess and its not clear to me what you are trying to here.

Could it be that you are searching for something like the routine ssen below (assuming the number of elements of the vectors z.all and sigma' is always the same and even?

If that was what you were looking for, you could simplify the calculation that way:
