Deep Excavation Analysis

Complex features, such as sheet pile walls, props and anchors can all be easily incorporated into a LimitState:GEO model.

Complex features, such as sheet pile walls, props and anchors can all be easily incorporated into a LimitState:GEO model.

With LimitState:GEO, the modelling of deep excavations is made simple. Complex geometries, loading and ground conditions can all be incorporated, as well as more complex features such as sheet-pile walls, props, anchors and inclined water tables. The rapid setup and solve workflow allows solutions for staged works and ‘what if’ type problems to be determined quickly and accurately.

The Discontinuity Layout Optimization (DLO) analysis method will rapidly analyse all possible modes of failure and report the critical case, whether that involves base heave, wall collapse, structural failure or a combination of these.
