Webinar Invitation: Exploring the New PANDA DCP WebSprint Module for Liquefaction Risk Estimation

Nov 27, 2023 | Insitutek, Soil & Site Investigation

We are excited to introduce the addition of a new Liquefaction Risk Estimation module in WebSprint©. Paired with our cutting-edge products, PANDA® and GRIZZLY®, this module enables you to assess the liquefaction risk of soils exposed to seismic stress.

PANDA® Instrumented DCP: This cutting-edge tool provides dynamic penetrometer soundings, delivering precise data crucial for seismic risk evaluations.

GRIZZLY® Dynamic Probing Super Heavy: Unleash the power of GRIZZLY®, a dynamic probing tool used to measure the in-situ strength of fine- grained and granular subgrades, base and sub base materials, and weakly cemented materials.

The Liquefaction Risk Estimation module can also be used with our Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) equipment from A.P. van den Berg.

With this WebSprint© module, you can:

  1. Tailor the module to your project’s specific needs by inputting geographical, seismic, geological, and project planning data.
  2. Analyse data from PANDA®GRIZZLY®, CPT(u), and SPT to generate accurate results.
  3. Benefit from the support of EUROCODE 8 for seismicity analysis, along with various calculation methods such as NCEER.
  4. Determine the safety factor to ensure the stability of your project in seismic conditions.
  5. Calculate settlements of saturated soils post-liquefaction using different methods.
  6. Evaluate the LPI to gauge the likelihood of liquefaction occurrence.
  7. Generate a detailed test report encompassing input data, calculation assumptions, and graphical representations of analysis results.
To help you get acquainted with the WebSprint© module, we invite you to join our upcoming webinar. This session will provide an in-depth exploration of the module’s functionalities, practical demonstrations, and a Q&A session for any inquiries you may have.

The Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD) was first used in 1998 by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) at the Minnesota Road Research Project. Starting in 2005 the LWD has been used by Mn/DOT as an acceptance tool for the compaction of roadbed and miscellaneous embankment and trench construction, culvert treatments and other tapered construction.

I would hate to go back to doing the Plate Load Test using the old method using dial gauges. It would be so time consuming, not to mention manually recording and then processing all the results.

We find clients are often looking for ways to improve geotechnical testing outcomes and do it more efficiently at the same time. This drives their buying decision making. Australian Soil and Concrete Testing (ASCT) was a case in point when they were searching for Plate Load Test equipment for their upcoming Collector Wind Farm project. Some of the things that motivated them include: […]

The Australian Geomechanics Society is gearing up for a series of geotechnical events across VIC, WA, NSW, and SA-NT. We are thrilled to inform you that we will be sponsoring and attending these exciting geotechnical events, and we would love for you to join us. It’s a fantastic opportunity to catch up, explore our booth (VIC), and stay informed about […]

In an industry set with challenges of staff and skills shortages, and unrealistically low pricing for some traditional test methods, our approach as an industry needs to change. What we are measuring and the time between tests being done and results delivered back to the construction team are both important considerations. Recently, I sat down […]
