Dimension® Solution Software is used to calculate the bearing capacity and projected settlement beneath shallow foundations, which helps reduce project costs and improve foundation performance. Developed for Tensar International’s Dimension® Foundation Improvement System, Dimension Solution Software offers a number of benefits, including:
Cost savings – Provides clients with safe and reliable designs, which reduce construction costs and time
Reliability – Technology is based upon empirical data derived from extensive field and laboratory research conducted on Tensar® Geogrids
Improved performance – Compared to unimproved foundations, software calculations can help Dimension System solutions:
- Increase the effective bearing capacity by a factor of up to three
- Reduce estimated settlement up to 60%
- Mitigate differential settlement
- Improve the margin of safety for unforeseen soil conditions
Applications
Dimension Solution Software is most effective when working with:
- One to two-story buildings
- Footings less than six feet in width (square, rectangular or strip)
- Maximum applied bearing pressure less than
4,000 psf
- Soils with uniform layers
- Problem soils consisting of soft clays or loose sands
