Advanced Finite Element Analysis and Design

Our team excels in advanced finite element analysis of foundation and structural systems, with a deep understanding of constitutive modeling, numerical analysis methods, dynamic analysis, and soil-structure interactions. Utilizing powerful software tools such as PLAXIS, STAAD, and RISA, along with our proprietary in-house calculation tools, we deliver precise and reliable analyses. Our expertise extends to designing in compliance with both North American and international standards, ensuring that our designs meet the highest quality and safety requirements. This comprehensive approach allows us to address complex engineering challenges and deliver innovative solutions tailored to our clients' needs. Learn more about value-adds below.

Our Value-adds Make Us Unique!

  • PLAXIS #D contact pressure contours

    PLAXIS 3D

    PLAXIS 3D from Bentley Systems is the leading finite element package to analyze soil-structure interaction problems. The package includes unparalleled capabilities in constitutive modeling of geomaterials and structural elements in contact with them. We use this package to investigate problematic foundations, validate geotechnical capacities of our foundations and many other purposes.

  • STAAD.Pro and RISA-3D

    STAAD.Pro & RISA-3D

    We use industry-leading structural analysis packages such as STAAD.Pro or RISA-3D . These packages allow us to design or evaluate structural elements, such as PV trackers, to North American standards.

  • PTC Mathcad calculations

    PTC Prime

    Our calculation packages are primarily based on PTC’s MathCad which produces easy-to-follow and read calculations. This makes it easier for Owner Engineers to understand the submittal and provide feedback.
