Gabion
This program is used for gabion wall design. It allows analysis of any structure shapes including geogrids anchoring.
Main Features
- Verification analysis can be performed employing EN 1997-1, LRFD or classical approach (limit states, factor of safety);
- EN 1997 – option to choose partial factors based on National Annexes;
- EN 1997 – option to choose all design approaches , consider design situations;
- Internal stability analysis (overturning, slip, bearing capacity of foundation soil);
- Generally layered soil environment;
- Built-in database of soil parameters;
- Arbitrary number of surcharges applied to structures (strip, trapezoidal, concentrated load);
- Arbitrary number of inserted forces (anchors, safety fences, etc.);
- Modelling of water in front of and behind structures, modelling of artesian water;
- Check of gabion material (rock);
- General shape of terrain behind the structure;
- Front face resistance in front of the structure (at rest, passive, reduced passive);
- New types of foundation below the gravity wall (strip footing, piles);
- Berms in front of the structure;
- Analysis of earth pressures in effective and total parameters;
- Possibility to consider minimum dimensioning pressure;
- Earthquake effects (Mononobe-Okabe, Arrango, Chinese standards);
- Supports mesh overhangs with anchorage;
- Multiple construction stages;
- BIM-compatible export via the IFC interface.
Programs Linked Together
The program allows to transfer some data for additional verification to the following programs:
- Slope Stability – Verification of external stability of structures
- Spread Footing – Analysis of bearing capacity of foundation soil
- Pile Group – Analysis of bearing capacity of pile group
- Pile – Analysis of bearing capacity of single pile
