Hello everyone,
I hope you are doing fine !
I recently decided to try Mathcad Prime for my calculations, and I found the software to be easy to use.
However, when I was writing an equation, I got the message "Units are not compatible"
Can someone help ?
Thank you in advance !

But the thing is I really need to use the Nq, Nc and Ngamma in the formula. Can't I use dimensionless numbers ?
You can, but its not advisable. You should take advantage of Primes ability to detect unbalanced units
What should I do to solve this problem then ?
Use correct units for ALL factors.
I guess that c should be the shear strength above the level of the base of foot (and should be neglected because its set to 0). The shear strength has the unit of tension (force per area), typically N/mm^2 or MN/m^2.
In Prime you should also apply units to a value of zero. So, as Luc already suggested, you should use c:=0 N/mm^2 or something like this instead of just 0. The specific units do not matter (as the value is 0), all that matters is the dimension which has to be force per area.
