Selfconsistent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) calculations have been performed with the Gogny force for nuclei along several constant Z and constant N chains, with the purpose of extracting the macroscopic part of the binding energy using the Strutinsky prescription. The macroscopic energy obtained in this way is compared to current liquid drop formulas. The evolution of the single particle levels derived from the HFB calculations along the constant Z and constant N chains and the variations of the different kinds of nuclear radii are also analysed. Those radii are shown to follow isospin-dependent three parameter laws close to the phenomenological formulas which reproduce experimental data.
