Explore Simplex Foundation’s Capabilities
Intuitive User Interface: Start designing in seconds with our user-friendly cloud software—no setup needed. Say goodbye to tedious manual Excel work and hello to a streamlined workflow.
Foundation Design in Accordance with Eurocode: Includes design and verification of strip and pad foundations (point and line), including geotechnical calculations, with full soil-structure interaction – all in line with Eurocode: EC0, EC1, EC2, and EC7, including national annexes (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Great Britain). Moreover, we’re already preparing for the upcoming second-generation Eurocodes and making the software future-proof.
Optimised Designs: Use smart auto-design to find the most efficient foundation dimensions and reinforcement layouts for minimising material usage without compromising safety. You can choose whether to optimise the size of the foundation or to optimise the reinforcement. Stay compliant with Eurocodes but also optimise for lower CO₂ emissions and carbon footprint.
Combined Capacity Checks: Check both soil and concrete capacity — all within one program.
Cloud-Based Project Storage: Access your personal project space in the cloud, where all your files are securely stored. If you prefer local storage, you can simply download your files anytime.
Automated Reporting: Generate detailed reports with analysis results and step-by-step design checks, making verification simple and providing clear presentation for all stakeholders.
