DeepFND
DeepFND is a cutting-edge software solution tailored for the intricate design of deep foundation piles, integrating both geotechnical and structural calculations within a cohesive platform. This remarkable tool enables engineers to determine the axial geotechnical pile capacity with precision, taking into account elements such as skin friction and end bearing, while also permitting the evaluation of settlement behaviors based on data from Standard Penetration Tests (SPT) or Cone Penetration Tests (CPT). In addition, users can perform detailed lateral pile analyses that concentrate on displacement, shear, and moment under specified head-loads or through pushover techniques. The software is adept at designing not only individual piles but also pile groups and pile rafts, effectively managing various custom pile-cap shapes. DeepFND accommodates a diverse range of pile types, including drilled, driven, continuous flight auger (CFA), caissons, drilled-in-displacement, micropiles, and helical piles, while proficiently modeling soil-structure interaction through soil springs or advanced 3D finite-element analysis. Furthermore, it supports structural evaluations under both service and factored load scenarios, adhering to a multitude of international design codes such as ACI, AISC, Eurocodes, AS/NZS, Chinese Standards, and AASHTO LRFD, ensuring adaptability and compliance with various engineering standards. The combination of its extensive features and a focus on user experience propels DeepFND to the forefront as a vital resource for engineers engaged in deep foundation projects, making it an indispensable part of modern civil engineering practices.
