SVSOLID™GT is a 1D, 2D and 3D finite-element program for geotechnical earth structures. The software can solve both simple problems and complex staged construction or excavation problems involving elasto-plastic soft-soil behavior and consolidation as well as the elastic deformation of rock materials.

Fast and Stable Solutions of Large, Complex Numerical Models

The SVSOLID™GT software is designed for determining the stress state and deformations in soils under various loading conditions. SVSOLID™GT contains the newly integrated high-performance SVCORE™ Finite Element Engine solver specifically designed to solve stress-deformation problems efficiently. SVSOLID™GT is applicable to geotechnical, civil, and mining projects.

Key features of SVSOLID™GT:

SVCORE™: Our new high-performance, robust and stable finite element solution engine Slope stability modeling with shear strength reduction (SSR) method Staged construction / excavation models 1D / 2D / 3D solutions handle any geometry configuration Modeling of small-strain and large-strain consolidation Elasto-plastic constitutive soil models Triangulated surface mesh support The advanced abilities of model grouping and linking are available which are particularly useful in large and complex modeling sequences. Easily generate 3D models from 2D cross-sections, or 3D models from 2D cross-sectionsslice 3D models into 2D cross-sections Easy to use and simplified CAD-based user interface: A clearly organized menu system with left to right arrangement of primary functions Allows for the rapid creation of models The new 3D CAD graphics engine provides fast overall operation Extensive QAQC program World Class Support: Highly dedicated team with tracking and fast response to raised issues - typically within 24 - 48 hours

SVSOLID™GT is a 1D, 2D and 3D finite-element program for geotechnical earth structures. The software can solve both simple problems and complex staged construction or excavation problems involving elasto-plastic soft-soil behavior and consolidation as well as the elastic deformation of rock materials.

The most significant change to any particular module within our SVOFFICE™5/GT software has been to the SVSOLID™GT package which has been completely redesigned and utilizes our new SVCORE™ Finite Element Engine solver. The new solver has been developed over 20 years and allows fast and stable solution of extremely large three-dimensional numerical models. The design changes and technical advances in the software firmly position SVSOLID™GT as the premiere stress / deformation software package available in the world today.
