Designing safe, efficient and dependable piled foundations is essential to the performance and durability of any structure.
Geotechnical engineers routinely rely on piled foundations to transfer loads into stronger ground or to overcome difficult or uncertain soil conditions. The behaviour of a pad, pile or raft foundation directly influences how a superstructure moves and performs throughout its life. Getting foundation behaviour right is critical, and Oasys tools ensure engineers can access dependable calculations for settlement, lateral deflection, bending moments and pile capacity.
Minimising settlement is key for protecting the structure above. With Oasys software, engineers can:
– Assess vertical capacity over a range of pile lengths and soil strata
– Calculate settlements and ground movements around individual or groups of piles
– Determine bending moments and deflections due to lateral loads
– Make design decisions with confidence, supported by proven analysis methods
Our suite of geotechnical analysis tools supports simple, quick, robust and efficient pile design across a wide spectrum of soil complexities. Whether you are working on a single pile, a complex ground model or a multi‑stage design workflow, Oasys software helps you reach reliable, code‑compliant results faster.
Oasys software enhances interdisciplinary workflows by connecting geotechnical analysis with structural design tools. This ensures piles are not only structurally sound but optimised for ground conditions and long‑term performance.
For reinforced concrete piles, Oasys simplifies the entire design workflow. Together, these tools help structural and geotechnical engineers collaborate seamlessly, ensuring the designed pile meets both geotechnical and structural performance requirements.
AdSec provides advanced checks including pile capacity, crack widths and stiffness behaviour.
ADC quickly calculates reinforcement based on pile size and applied loads.
