Foundation3D is a spread and combined footing analysis/design tool that completes soil or pile supported foundation with minimal input.
We know that in the plant design world, civil/structural engineers are the last to receive crucial information but are the first ones required to produce final deliverables such as foundation design drawings. Therefore, automation in foundation design is a must in achieving an important milestone of a very compressed project schedule.
With Foundation3D, you can consistently expect to meet or exceed your project schedule demands. From equipment-specific automated load calculations to generating design sketches, Foundation3D will increase your productivity significantly at every stage of your project.
Main features:
- International Design Codes: Supports many international concrete design codes to help complete your global projects
- User Defined Parameters: Provides many customizable design options such as concrete cover, pile arrangement and many others to help meet various types of project specifications
- Load Generation: Calculates various types of equipment loads - including wind loads - quickly and accurately, saving you load calculation time
- Load Cases and Combinations: Generates commonly used load cases and combinations for equipment foundation design, saving you significant design time
- Soil/Pile Supported Designs: Completes both soil and pile supported foundation designs in an integrated environment, allowing you to consider many “what-if” scenarios for an optimal solution
- Analysis/Design Modes: Supports both analysis and design modes to complete your grass-roots or revamp projects, reducing the total cost of ownership
- Multiple Foundation Components Design: Completes design of various components of a foundation such as pedestals and footing, saving you the cost of learning multiple software solutions
- Rebar Layouts: Provides rebar layouts in pedestals and footings with customization options
- Material Quantities: Generates material quantities so that you can provide accurate cost estimates to your customers every time, at every phase of the project
- Detailed Design Sketches: Generates a detailed design sketch with foundation plan, elevation, and sections, allowing you to summarize the completed design effectively
- 2D Drawings: Interfaces with popular CAD engines to generate 2D construction drawings, helping you manage your design-drawing environment and human resources effectively
- 3D Models: Interfaces with popular modeling tools to generate 3D models of the completed foundation design, allowing you to meet or exceed compressed, constantly changing project schedule requirements
- Multiple Reporting Options: Generates different kinds of customizable reports for your internal or client needs
- Import Wizard: Imports support geometry and reactions from any superstructure software solution to complete foundation design quickly, increasing your productivity.
