GGU-SLAB

GGU-Slab GGU-SLAB

Analysis of elastically supported slabs based on the modulus of subgrade reaction and constrained modulus methods using the finite-element method.


Capabilities:

  • Powerful mesh generator (for generating circular, annular and elliptical slabs) 
  • Subgrade modulus profile can be varied as required 
  • Finite-element mesh coordinates can be imported from a table via the Windows clipboard  
  • Any type of slab boundary including holes 
  • Any slab thickness can be defined within the foundation   
  • Beam elements for modelling foundation beams or walls 
  • Single springs, perpendicular to slab, e.g. for modelling piles  
  • Definition of linearly variable subgrade reaction moduli within an element 
  • Constrained modulus distribution can be defined by stratigraphic profiles and an interpolation mesh 
  • Modeling of any soil stratification 
  • Soil properties can be selected from an expandable database of common soils 
  • Export and import of constrained modulus profiles or an interpolation mesh for the constrained modulus to and from the computer program GGU-SETTLE 
  • Consideration of vibro-displacement compaction after Priebe 
  • Consideration of kappa correction coefficients (DIN 4019) possible 
  • Excavation unloading can be taken into account.  
  • Limiting depth analysis for constrained modulus method using p % of overburden stress, a multiple of foundation width or a fixed value 
  • Visualization of internal forces: moment, shear force, displacements (including determination of torsional stiffness for multi-layered systems) and pressure in the foundation base 
  • Differing concrete cover thickness for the upper and lower slab surface possible 
  • Slab reinforcement according to EC 2 
  • Numerous options for visualizing the evaluation results, e.g. as contour lines, 3D graphics or in sections 
  • Computation and visualization of settlement depressions 
  • User-designed output sheet 
  • Print or copy screen sections, e.g. for transfer to a word processor 
  • Integrated Mini-CAD system for additional annotation of graphics

Webinar

Analysis of elastically supported slabs with GGU-SLAB (37min)

This webinar will demonstrate the GGU-SLAB program’s ability to analyse slabs using the subgrade reaction modulus and the constrained modulus methods. To solve the differential equation which we will have a look at a little later the finite-element-method is employed. Slabs with varying thicknesses and varying material properties can be examined. The subgrade modulus profile can be varied with almost no restraints. The constrained modulus distribution can be defined with stratigraphic profiles. For both…
