Advanced Finite Element Analysis and Design

PLAXIS 3D from Bentley Systems is the leading finite element package to analyze soil-structure interaction problems. The package includes unparalleled capabilities in constitutive modeling of geomaterials and structural elements in contact with them. We use this package to investigate problematic foundations, validate geotechnical capacities of our foundations and many other purposes.

We use industry-leading structural analysis packages such as STAAD.Pro or RISA-3D . These packages allow us to design or evaluate structural elements, such as PV trackers, to North American standards.

Our calculation packages are primarily based on PTC’s MathCad which produces easy-to-follow and read calculations. This makes it easier for Owner Engineers to understand the submittal and provide feedback.
