Online Retaining Wall Calculations
Free retaining wall design software that fully works in a web browser. Create a stable retaining wall design using state-of-the-art software without downloading software.
Correlating Soil Properties From SPT Blow Counts
Dartis SPT is a powerful, user-friendly software for correlating soil properties from SPT blow counts. We have gone through many papers and geotechnical reference books and collected over 200 SPT correlations with various soil properties.
Geoscientific Analyses, Mapping, Data Display and Data Management
GaeaSynergy is an application suite for geoscientific analyses, mapping, data display and data management. The program can be used to evaluate contaminants, soil and rock properties, mineral deposits, and oil and gas deposits.
Boring, Borehole and Well Logs
The WinLoG extension module of GaeaSynergy can be used to quickly and easily create, edit and print boring logs, borehole logs and well logs for a variety of industries.
Pocket ESA has been designed to minimize the amount of time required to generate standard Environmental Site Assessment reports and to maximize the flexibility of the final report.
Pile Capacity, Design Load Estimation and Pile Group Settlement
The GEMS – Pile Group Settlement Analysis software uses modern analytical techniques based on the subsurface soil profile, pile dimensions and group geometry to estimate the pile group settlement.
Hydrodynamic / Hydraulic Modelling
ANUGA Hydro is a free and open source software tool for hydrodynamic modelling, suitable for predicting the consequences of hydrological disasters such as riverine flooding, storm surges and tsunamis.
FBEAM is a fully featured composite beam design software that allows you to design composite and non-composite cellular and plain beams to multiple design codes.
Soil USCS & AASHTO Classification
Dartis Classify is a soil USCS & AASHTO classification software. Easily classify soils by USCS and AASHTO methods and export results to Excel.
Elastic and Plastic Resistance of Open and Thin Walled Sections
Thinwallres Open&Closed application allows to determine the resistance capacity of open and closed thin-walled sections
Critical Loads and Analysis of Imperfect Structures
The following application allows determining the resistance capacity of compressed and deflected pieces with a double tee section, susceptible to lateral buckling.
