Shaft3D - Shaft Foundation Design Software

Windows 2000/XP

Shaft3D is a shaft foundation design program that completes the design of a shaft in seconds. Drilled Shaft, also commonly known as Drilled Pier or Caisson, is a foundation design type commonly used in areas with poor shallow soils. With Shaft3D, you can complete your complex work process from inputting loads to obtaining a detailed design sketch in a matter of seconds.

Shaft3D supports following features and functions:
- Allows multiple system of units for input and output - English, Metric and SI
- Considers design of both straight and belled shaft sections
- Allows input of multiple soil layers with different values of soil properties for each layer
- Considers buoyancy effects in the calculation of bearing pressures and stability ratios
- Accepts unlimited type and number of load cases
- Accepts unlimited type and number of factored and unfactored load combinations
- Allows input of axial loads and biaxial bending
- Completes both rigid and finite element analysis of the shaft
- Completes axial capacity analysis using various methods for computing end bearing and skin resistance
- Displays critical parameters along the length of the shaft such as lateral deflections, soil pressures, shear forces and bending moments
- Completes lateral analysis of any type of shaft such as a hollow steel tube or concrete shaft or any other
- Completes concrete design based on rigid and finite element analysis
- Allows you to choose the type of analysis for reinforcement selection in a concrete shaft
- Provides multiple choices of longitudinal and tie rebar arrangement
- Allows the user to change the longitudinal and tie rebar arrangement
- Accepts anchor bolt arrangement for display on sketches
- Generates material quantities
- Generates a detailed design sketch of foundation plan, elevation and a section through the shaft showing reinforcement
- Generates a detailed input and output report with report customization capability
