Soil Parameters for Piles

User: "MHalliday"

Are there any guides for inputting the soil parameters for piles in S-Foundation?  I have soil properties from the geotechnical engineer, but they do not align with what if some in the Soil dialogue in S-Foundation.

Alternatively, would ALtair/S-Frame provide some assistance, i.e. model review, or be open to discussing these inputs with us?

    Hello Michael, thank you for your message. 

    If you do not have all of the geotechnical parameters or do not align with S-FOUNDATION's default soil profiles I'd suggest using linear springs where you can even enter the explicit stiffness

    With that said, if you want to discuss further or check something particular about your model or input, feel free to open a case or send us a message to HWSupport@altair.com with any relevant files attached so we can take a closer look. 

    Best regards,
