GEO5 Ground Loss

This program is used for analysis and determination of the shape of subsidence trough above excavations and to evaluate the damage to buildings situated in the affected area. The main features of the GEO5 Ground Loss program are:

• Subsidence trough analysis using the Volume Loss Method or classical theories (Peck, Limanov, Fazekas)
• Shape of subsidence trough estimated using Gauss or Aversin approximation
• Can model sequential excavation and multiple tunnel tubes
• Determination of subsidence trough shape, settlement, gradient and horizontal strains
• Subsidence trough analysis at ground surface or at given depth
• Consideration of layered geological profile when using traditional methods
• Implemented table with recommended values of VL and k when using the Volume Loss Method
• Assessment of building damage
