Settlement Analysis

Perform soil settlement analysis to analyze immediate settlement, primary consolidation and secondary settlement of embankments, foundations, and surface loads. Easily create soil profiles using RSLog, CPT boreholes with soil classification, or the section creator feature to generate models efficiently.

Ground Improvement

Get more flexibility over ground improvement methods like soil replacement, vibro-compaction, or stone columns, which can be applied to regions with different staging at different depths. Sensitivity analysis is also available for settlement analysis with ground improvement properties such as stiffness, top depth, bottom depth, spacing etc.

CPT Analysis & Liquefaction Analysis

Perform CPT and Liquefaction analysis in conjunction with each other or as standalone modules. CPT analysis results offer 29 different parameter results. Liquefaction results can be calculated based on Standard Penetration Test (SPT), Cone Penetration Test (CPT), or Shear Wave Velocity (VST) data. Various triggering and post triggering methods are also available in Settle3.

Settle3 across Applications

  • Embankments
  • Foundations
  • Ground Improvement

Embankments

Full flexibility to model your embankments adding cross sections, multiple layers and user-defined staging sequences. Define the shape freely in 2D and extruded in 3D with user-defined end angles.

Settle3 for Embankments

Foundations

Apply foundations as loads with flexible or rigid footing. Define various shapes, loads per vertices and staging sequences. Gain the ability to import multiple loads obtained from structural software programs such as SAFE.

Settle3 for Foundations

Ground Improvement

Ground improvement regions can be applied with respect to different loading conditions in Settle3. Choose soil replacement, vibro-compaction, or stone columns to design your foundation with ground improvement. Also wick drains and stone column drainage option is available as well for accelerating consolidations in your analysis.

Settle3 for Ground Improvement

Settle3 seamlessly integrates with

  • RSLog

+

Import borehole data from RSLog directly into Settle3 which can be used to quickly define your soil layers and material properties, without manually inputting data. You can also import field test data (e.g. SPT blow counts) directly from RSLog into your Settle3 project.

The Latest Features

Learn more about all the new features in the latest release of Settle3. Read article
  • CPT Simulation and Empirical Settlement with CPT Points

    Simulate any missing CPT points or perform empirical settlement analysis using just the CPT points with the new CPT simulation / empirical settlement with CPT points feature. With the given CPT points, Settle3 uses non-lattice sparse Bayesian learning algorithm to predict missing CPT points at any location.

  • Non-Horizontal Surface Loading

    Define loads with different elevations at the vertices or geometry that needs to be placed on top of non-horizontal ground surfaces. Simulate different stress distributions along different depth of loads applied for different sections and apply variable loading for the analysis of staged construction with variations in the geometry’s depth/elevation.

  • Ground improvement with advanced stage columns

    Have more flexibility in defining soil layer boundaries for 2D soil profile in Settle3 and freely draw soil profile without any limitations. Create models including discontinuous soil layers, sink holes, utility trenches and more. Add further details to your soil profile with drainage conditions between each soil layer.
