DETAILED FEATURES
-
Database functionality means unlimited storage of soil tests organized by project and borehole
-
Adherence to ASTM test standards separation of sieve and hydrometer data
-
Ability to fit gap-graded, bimodal soils with equations from Fredlund & Wilson
-
Support for English & Metric Units
-
-
Calculation of particle-size density functions for unimodal and bimodal soils
-
Professional report generation allows selection and reporting of multiple soils on the same report
-
Automatic calculation of D10, D20, D30, D50, D60 and %Clay, %Silt, %Sand, and %Coarse for both USDA and USCS (ASTM) Classification standards
-
Automatic classification by USDA or USCS (ASTM) methods
-
Non-linear regression of unimodal or bimodal equations to represent the grain-size distribution
-
Theoretical estimation of unsaturated soil properties. Over 20 theoretical and statistical methods are included for the prediction of soil-water characteristic curves and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curves based on grain-size and other data. Estimation methods are highly valuable for the modeling of seepage through the vadose zone.
-
Pre-existing laboratory database of over 6200 soils. Over 95% of theses oils have a laboratory measured soil-water characteristic curve. Laboratory data also exists for over 2500 saturated hydraulic conductivities and over 600 unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curves
-
Automatic calculation of grain-size statistics
-
Geostatistics module allows quick statistical analysis of your laboratory data.
-
Mathematical fits of soil property functions allows soils in certain "bands" to be selected.
-
Free form search wizard allows searching of the database based on almost any criteria.
-
Mathematical model provides input for seepage and groundwater finite element and finite difference models.
-
Software interfaces with many modeling packages, graphics packages, GIS, report writers, and borehole log programs
