CAISSON is a bespoke software providing a rapid dimensioning tool for Suction Installed Caissons (SICAs) embedded in a 2-layer cohesive soil. Loading may be applied at the top or along the side and includes an inverted catenary solution for embedded chains.
JACA is our fully featured engineering tool designed and used by our geotechnical engineers for leg penetration calculations. The software reduces the time taken for this process, allowing us to provide clients with a more timely and cost effective service.
Our design philosophy was to develop a tool which would enable easy computation and comparison of results from many different methods using both mechanism based and strength averaging approaches.
Methods implemented include all variations of SNAME, ISO 19905-1 as well as alternative strength averaging methods recommended in the InSafeJIP. In order to provide a modern, well-written, and robust tool, the system has been developed by professional programmers to our specification. Extensive validation has been performed using MathCAD solutions for all methods available.
This software is used in-house and is not commercially available.
We use and develop software that liberate our engineers’ and clients’ time to focus on improving engineering methods and interpretation.
