Version GEO5 -Bridge Abutment Design Software

SHARE

This program is used to design bridge abutments including wing walls. It allows to check the abutment for overturning, translation, bearing capacity of foundation soil and dimensioning of decisive or reinforced concrete sections (including wings).
