GEMS Pile Group Settlement Analysis

The 'GEMS – Pile Group Settlement Analysis' software uses modern analytical techniques based on the subsurface soil profile, pile dimensions and group geometry to estimate the pile group settlement.

Package includes modules for
a) Pile group settlement
b) Pile capacity and design load estimation

Supports
- Pile group with rigid and flexible cap
- Different methods of construction
- Different pile cross-sections
- Different codes of practice including linear and non-linear analysis methods
- Soil types such as clay, sand and rock with provision for scour and water table

This software is especially suitable for analysis and design of pile groups used in land, bridge and water front structures.

Available on macOS, windows and on the cloud using a browser
