Sheeting Check – Excavation design and analysis (Non-linear elastic/plastic model)

The program is used for the analysis of shallow and deep excavations and retaining structures (anchored, non-anchored cantilever and prop or strut walls) by the method of elastoplastic nonlinear analysis i.e. the magnitude of pressures acting upon a structure depend on its deformation. Program allows the accurate modelling of structural behavior during construction process, determination of the displacement field, the internal forces in the structure and the post-tensioning of anchors.

Preliminary design of wall dimensions, internal forces and anchor loads can be performed by GEO5 Sheeting Design.
