GridCore

GridCore streamlines the process of conducting stability assessments for reinforced embankments, related to the standards outlined in CUR-198 guidelines. This tool offers users the flexibility to input embankment geometry, define custom reinforcement sheets (such as Geo-grids), specify material types, distribute loads, and outline soil layers. With these inputs, GridCore conducts checks on both external stability (horizontal sliding) and internal stability (evaluation of failure planes with Culmann wedges).

Utilizing the Culmann method for internal calculations allows GridCore to handle a wide array of geometry shapes, making it a versatile solution for various embankment configurations. Additionally, the tool's capability to accommodate bi-linear failure planes facilitates precise calculations, particularly when dealing with variations in soil properties within and behind the Geo-grids.

In summary, GridCore stands as a valuable asset for engineers involved in embankment design, offering a flexible and efficient solution for conducting stability assessments.

Please note that GridCore is still under development and not available as a service at the moment. If you're interested to receive updates about the status of the product please contact us.
