DartisTech DartiGeo

DartisTech DartiGeo is a professional geotechnical engineering software for soil analysis, site investigation, foundation design, and geotechnical reporting. Developed by DartisTech, this flagship application provides engineers with a comprehensive environment for interpreting laboratory and field test data, classifying soils, calculating bearing capacity, estimating settlement, and generating geotechnical design parameters. Version 1.0 lays the foundation for a modern geotechnical workflow – integrating soil database management, foundation analysis modules (shallow and deep), slope stability screening, and automated reporting. Whether designing spread footings for a commercial building, analyzing pile group capacity for a bridge foundation, or assessing settlement for an embankment, DartiGeo delivers the accuracy and efficiency that geotechnical professionals demand.

⚡ Key Features & Capabilities

???? Soil Data Management & Site Investigation

Soil Boring & Test Data:

  • Import from borehole logs (Excel, CSV, AGS)

  • Soil layer definition: depth, description, unit weight, strength parameters (c, φ), modulus (Es)

  • Laboratory test database: Atterberg limits, grain size, compaction, consolidation, triaxial, direct shear

Soil Classification:

  • USCS (Unified Soil Classification System), AASHTO

  • Automatic group symbol & name from lab data

Site Profile Management:

  • Multi-borehole project, stratigraphy modeling

  • Groundwater table depth (static & seasonal variation)

???? Shallow Foundation Analysis

Spread Footings / Strip / Mat:

  • Bearing capacity (Terzaghi, Meyerhof, Hansen, Vesic)

  • Factor of safety (global, partial factors per code)

  • Settlement (immediate + consolidation): elastic theory, layer summation (1D)

Eccentric & Inclined Loads:

  • Effective area method (Meyerhof) for eccentricity

  • Sliding & overturning checks

???? Deep Foundation (Piles)

Pile Types:

  • Driven (steel, concrete, timber), bored (cast-in-situ), CFA (Continuous Flight Auger)

Axial Capacity:

  • End bearing + skin friction (α-method, β-method, λ-method)

  • Pile load test interpretation (Davisson, Chin)

Group Effects:

  • Block failure, efficiency, settlement (equivalent raft)

????️ Slope Stability (Preliminary)

  • Circular slip surfaces (Bishop simplified, Ordinary/Fellenius)

  • Safety factor for earth slopes & embankments
