Computer-based solutions of complex geotechnical and structural engineering challenges


ANNOUNCEMENTS
SOFTWARE PRODUCTS
  • The improvements in recent releases of LPILE v6 and GROUP v8 have been welcomed by our users. Since their original release at the end of last year, our development team has been busy providing enhancements and with minor reported typos. visit our page of Software Downloads to get the latest maintenance releases of both products (LPILE v6.0.25 and GROUP v8.0.13).
  • The third generation of the PYWALL program has been released. Ensoft's PYWALL v3.0 is an innovative program that implements concepts of soil-structure interaction in the analyses of flexible retaining walls. The new version includes features for simple evaluations of staged construction and short and long-term responses.
  • APILE Plus v5.0 has been released in Regular and Offshore versions. The new version accepts variation of cross-sectional area with depth (for pipe piles with different wall thickness), performs computations for uplift loads and can automatically read data from CPT tests. The Offshore version introduces new computations based on NGI-99 and Imperial College methods, both using CPT data.
  • The latest analytical reccommendations for drilled shafts under axial loadings have been incorporated in the recent release of SHAFT v6.0. This version introduces new soil types, enhanced graphical output and numerical export of nonlinear soil-transfer (t-z) curves for top, middle and bottom of each soil layer.
FALL 2011 SHORT COURSE
Registration slots are currently available for Ensoft's Fall 2011 Short Course at the AT&T Hotel and Conference Center in Austin, Texas:
  • November 15 (Tuesday): In-depth training of LPILE and concepts of single piles under lateral loads.
  • November 16 & 17: Axial response of piles and drilled shafts, response of group of piles under combined loadings, and seismic design concepts for foundations and flexible retaining walls.
  • Check our Seminars page for more information.
  • Use this opportunity for in-depth training of the new LPILE v6 and GROUP v8.
TECHNICAL BOOKS
A second edition of the popular book "Single Piles and Pile Groups Under Lateral Loading" (PDF file, 693KB) has been recently printed by CRC Press / A.A. Balkema. Many topics were expanded and some typos corrected. In addition, homework problems are introduced at the end of each chapter.
Ensoft has secured a limited number of books that are currently available for sale at reduced pricing to our users (see Price List). This is a great opportunity to combine your next shipment of software products with a very useful background technical reference.
