The calculation of slope stability is an essential operation for a proper analysis of rocky elements 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 analysis of rocky elements RockPlane NX allows for…
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…
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…
What is a geotechnical study? The geotechnical study, or as it is also known, soil investigation, is the procedure by which you can find out the soil’s physical properties. It is usually used on construction sites to determine if the soil is safe for the construction that will be done. Without soil analysis, construction projects…
In the proposed example is reported the piping verification of a channel section through the use of GeoStru software GFAS (Finite Element Analysis in Geotechnics). The geotechnical parameters used in the analyses and the geometries of the investigated sections refer to the Geological Report derived from in situ investigations. Cross section geometry The geometry of…
