Shallow foundations

With Websprint©, you can geotechnically check your foundation system.

The only application that integrates your data from dynamic cone penetrometers directly into the design calculations.

This module allows you to parameterize all the characteristics of your geotechnical model necessary for the justification of shallow foundations:

Geological data

  • Fill in your lithological section to characterize the horizons encountered (nature, coast, weight).

Project data

  • Choose the type of shallow foundation: spinning footing, square, rectangular or circular footing.
  • Set its geometry, including the recess depth.
  • Advanced option: add the presence of a bank weighting the bearing capacity.

Mechanical soil data

Work from your own geotechnical investigation results:

  • Dynamic penetrometer tests: Ground solution tools (Panda®, Grizzly®, e-Kodiak®), but also other dynamic penetrometers, etc.;
  • Static penetrometer testing (CPT);
  • Pressuremeter tests;
  • Analytical method
  • Import your data for calculations according to NF P 94-26.

Advanced calculation parameterization

  • Soil–structure behavior at the interface;
  • Coefficients of adjustment for settlements;
  • Penetrogram processing and filtering;
  • Automatic extension of profiles when necessary;
  • Definition of the cases of ELS / ULS loads and taking into account possible seismic effects.
