DC-Pilegroup light

The DC-Pilegroup light program can be used to calculate pile groups with a load-distributing head plate. The load is distributed among the piles and the required pile lengths are determined.

Description
  • Selectable pile types: bored piles, displacement piles (driven piles) and micro piles (grouted piles)
  • Compression piles or tension piles
  • Vertical or with an inclination
  • Pile group with a load-distributing head plate without elastic support, the pile-pile and pile-plate interactions are not considered
  • Variable soil stratification with specification of the characteristic parameters: skin friction, peak pressure and stiffness modulus for the foundation
  • The characteristic values for the skin friction and the peak pressure specified by DIN 1054, ÖNORM B 1997 and the EA Recommendations are available for cohesive and non-cohesive soils and rock
  • Multiple load cases with vertical and horizontal concentrated loads and line loads as well as concentrated moments and line moments, area loads
  • Automatic generation of the load case combinations with the combination coefficients psi
  • Calculation and representation of the pile internal forces, the pile settlements and the plate internal forces
  • Calculation of the plate and the bearing effect of the piles (FEM analysis with isoparametric quadrangular elements)
  • Calculation of the load distribution on the piles and the required pile lengths
  • Design of the piles and the raft, calculation of the required reinforcement and, if necessary, a punching shear analysis at the pile heads
  • Detailed output of the individual load cases as text and graphics
  • Output options: printer, PDF
  • Interfaces: RTF export to MS Word, graphic export in JPG format, DXF export
