Deep foundation design can be more complex and challenging than it appears in simple text books. Determining the geotechnical pile capacity is an art with many different methods that are available. Beyond estimating the skin friction and end bearing very often we also need to determine the lateral pile capacity. Add to this structural capacity calculations, settlement performance, pile groups, pile rafts and a host of different design codes such as AASHTO LRFD and Eurocode 7 or Australian Standards and you could be spending more time researching the design methods, using different calculation solutions versus delivering a solution that works.

That is why we developed DeepFND, a powerful, user-friendly program for deep foundations, developed by expert engineers to help you design deep foundations and minimize your risks.

These are not just marketing words. We are engineers with expertise and are passionate about helping you succeed.
