VisualFoundation specializes in analyzing and designing concrete foundations, enabling structural engineers to model isolated, combined, and mat footings with soil-structure interaction.
Foundation Design
- Graphical Modeling - Intuitive interface for defining geometry, loads, and supports.
- Stability Checks - Evaluate sliding, overturning, and uplift stability.
- Soil-Structure Interaction - Account for soil stiffness and bearing capacity.
- Finite Element Meshing - Automatically generate and refine meshes.
- Result Visualization - Display deflections, soil pressure, and moment contours.
- Reinforcement Design - Specify reinforcement manually or optimize automatically.
- Punching Shear Checks - Ensure shear capacity meets design standards.
- Code Compliance - Support ACI 318, ACI 350, and CSA A23.3 specifications.
