Static Pile analysis technical specs |
|
Static Pile Analysis is a finite-element modeling program for soil-structure
interaction problems. While
often used to determine behavior of a pile, the program can also be used to
analyze poles/posts, sheet piles, walls and just about any other structure
that relies on lateral soil support and/or skin friction for stability.
Static Pile is an advanced structural engineering program that includes a
wide range of non-linear behavior.
However, the program is so simple use, that its
only 3 input dialog boxes!
|
Key program features include:
-
Skin friction with depth-dependent slip threshold and friction
pressure.
-
Depth-dependent horizontal subgrade modulus with non-linear
profile.
-
Depth-dependent soil plastic limit.
-
Vertical subgrade modulus at pile tip.
-
The pile need not be flush with the ground level, allowing for
the analysis of poles and posts.
-
Loads include vertical, horizontal and moments applied to the
top of the pile.
-
Input load steps to study how the pile behaves with increasing
load and identify the load level that initiates non-linear
behavior.
-
The analysis report includes the pile’s deflection profile,
moment diagram, shear diagram for each load step.
-
Load-deflection plots for the pile top.
|
-
Moment diagram for the pile at maximum load step.
-
Displacement and moment plots can be exported to a DXF file.
-
Digital Canal’s Static Pile can be bought separately—you don’t
need to buy a “structural system” or “engineering library” to
get started.
-
Reports are in Microsoft Word format (RTF) giving you unequalled
portability, convenience, longevity and control.
-
Flexible unit controls allow for US or metric calculations.
-
User defined “default data” helps you eliminate redundant inputs
from one design to the next.
-
Simple file format—only one file per project, which can be
opened and saved in typical Windows fashion.
