The calculation of slope stability is an essential operation for a proper rock block consolidation plan. To tackle modern geotechnical challenges, the RockPlane NX software stands out as the definitive solution to calculate the stability of these elements in both static and seismic conditions Geometric criteria in rock block consolidation RockPlane NX allows for rigorous…
You know how a singer holding a high note can crack a wine glass? Or how pushing a swing at just the right moment sends it higher and higher? It’s the same phenomenon: resonance. Every object has its own preferred “rhythm” — a frequency at which it vibrates most easily. And the ground beneath our…
The geology and geotechnical engineering sector is undergoing a rapid digital transformation. Today, to optimize time and precision on site, we present GMS NX, the next generation of the geomechanical survey by GeoStru. This tool completely reimagines the professional’s workflow: your geomechanical survey goes directly from measurement with the compass on the rock face to…
Runoff Lab NX brings the entire hydrological workflow to your browser — from the rainfall series to the flood hydrograph — and introduces AI Import: drop a yearbook PDF in, the artificial intelligence reads the document and populates the station in seconds. It’s the first web application of the new GeoStru NX suite. The analysis…
In modern geotechnical practice, analyzing soil susceptibility under seismic conditions requires increasingly rapid, precise, and rigorous tools. GeoStru LiquiTer NX represents the vanguard in this sector: an advanced web software designed to automate liquefaction analysis with AI starting from in-situ tests such as SPT, CPT, CPTU, CPTE, and Vs. In this article, we explore the…
The design of earthworks, i.e. structures built using loose soil, has as its main objective the creation of constructions that remain stable over time, guaranteeing adequate safety margins. The performance required varies according to the type of work: for example, for an earthen dam or a river embankment it is essential to ensure hydraulic impermeability,…
Application of static penetrometric tests in stratigraphic profile reconstruction Diego Lo Presti,* Claudia Meisina,** Nunziante Squeglia* Cone penetration tests are a well-established in situ test methods for site characterization. Their widespread use for subsurface explorations is due to their reliability, speed, economy and to the fact that they supply continuous records with depths of soil…
Indagini geognostiche, prove di laboratorio e risultati della relazione geologica: tutto quello che occorre sapere grazie alla utile guida geotecnica dei geologi del Lazio Per la progettazione accurata di un’opera, è essenziale condurre un approfondito studio del sottosuolo al fine di ottimizzare le risorse economiche in relazione alle prestazioni richieste. Il Collegio dei Geologi della…
The permeability test in the oedometer cell is aimed at determining the coefficient of permeability (K) through direct measurement under variable hydraulic loading during the oedometric test. This type of test can be performed on soil samples primarily composed of silts and clays, whose permeability is greater than 10^-6 to 10^-7 m/s. Advanced configuration of…
BIM for Geotechnics and Geology: The GeoStru team is working at full pace to provide customers with the best solutions in Building Information Modeling (BIM). BIM has revolutionized the way architects and engineers work, and it also offers significant advantages in the field of geotechnics and geology. Work Methodology Those who use GeoStru software know…
