Geotechnical Work Addon

Post by geoguy »

I am new to this forum, Is there an existing addon for modeling excavation support systems (shoring) such as sheet piling, soldier piles, soil nails, etc. for geotechnical application? something like this:

https://blog.buildllc.com/2015/01/shoring-101/
https://www.advenser.com/site-underground-modeling/

Model Input:
1. External file from civil (topo) and from structural engineer (below ground portion of the building)
2. user input: soldier pile/sheet pile locations and geometry, some properties, tiebacks if needed.
Model output:
1. plan view
2. elevation views
3. Section views
4. Schedule of quantities from soldier piles and tieback geometry and properties

some examples of drawings

Maybe you can cross-post in the Arch/BIM forum or FEM forum

This is the thread for the Geomatics Workbench (HakanSeven).

This is the thread for the Trails Workbench (Joel Graff).

The "Geomatics" workbench was merged into the Trails Workbench a few months ago, so you should not try to install it by itself now.

The Geomatics workbench was essentially a fork of the GeoData Workbench by microelly2. However, since GeoData was no longer developed by its author, at this point in time you should probably try Trails before anything else.
