FIDES-PILEpro
Interactive generation and calculation of pile-plate foundations
The analysis of pile-plate foundations with consideration of different linear and non linear effects is a demanding task. With FIDES-PILEpro it is possible to solve such kind of problems in an economic way. Normally the pile heads will be coupled together over a rigid plate, FIDES-PILEpro also makes it possible to consider elastic plates (Finite Element Analysis), that may be hardened by arising walls. Moreover also integrated is the automatic calculation of the two-way transverse bedding effects of the piles as well as the dimensioning of the piles.
User interface
- CAD-like input functionality
- Extensive import possibilities like e.g. DXF, XML,...
- Input of the properties of the layered semi infinite space models per drilling profiles in combination with the soil layer database used by all FIDES se-ries of geotechnics programs in common
- Automatic Finite Element mesh generation
- Intelligent input helps e.g. at polygon intersec-tions, multiple object selection, ...
.
Calculation
