UNIBEAR is a program for designing non-embedded retaining walls, bridge abutments and piers. Includes effect of: surcharge loads, surface line loads, tieback loads, moment loads, sloping ground surface,…..
UNIPHASE performs phase system calculations for soils. Determine water content, degree of saturation, density (total, dry, saturated), void ratio and porosity. SI and English units.
UNIPILE determines pile capacity, settlement and dragload due to negative skin friction for piles and pile groups. Analysis methods: effective stress, total stress, lambda method in multilayered soils.
UNISETTLE calculates stress and settlement distribution (total and differential) in clays and sands. Consider multi-layered soils, multitude of loaded areas placed at different elevations, by excavation to different depths,….
