Description

This program is used for verification of steel tube micropiles. When calculating the micropile bearing capacity, the program verifies both the root and shaft. The main features of GEO5 Micropile program are:

  • Built-in database of steel cross-sections
  • Loading due to normal force and moment
  • Simple input of layer geometry
  • Built-in database of soils
  • General layered subsoil
  • Check for buckling failure using the following theories:
    • Equation of bending of a prismatic beam (geometric method)
    • After Salas
    • After Souch
  • Verification of the micropile cross-section adjusted for projected lifetime
  • Verification of the micropile root using one of the following methods:
    • Lizzi
    • Littlejohn
    • Zweck
    • Bowles
    • Véas
    • Bustamante (SPT, Pressiometer Ménard)
  • Analyses may be based on the theory of limit states or factor of safety
