Calculations

We perform calculations using independent computer software, but we create our own algorithms and calculation schemes as well.

For calculations we use programs which based either on the finite element method (FEM), such as Plaxis 3D or software that analyze a plane strain state (like GGU Stability, GeoCops, DC-Geotex). We perform calculations according to the currently applicable rules, based on Eurocode 7 and the limit state method, or on the basis of the British Standard (BS).

The calculations often concern:

  • slope stability (with and without geosynthetic reinforcement),
  • stability of retaining walls,
  • ground reinforcement,
  • basal reinforcement,
  • selection of materials with appropriate parameters for drainage.
