Presto Geosystems Offers MSE Retaining Wall Software

Oct. 2, 2014

Presto Geosystems, a leading manufacturer of soil stabilization and stormwater products, introduces their new Geoweb MSE design freeware for Geoweb geocell wall applications. The software creates vegetated and non-vegetated MSE designs based on the Geoweb system for reinforced slopes, and for gravity and geogrid-reinforced walls.

The easy to use software is based on industry standard design methods and contains specific algorithms that capture the unique interaction between the Geoweb system, infill and backfill soil, and geogrid reinforcement and specific factors of safety. In addition to performing the analysis with logical data input screens, Geoweb MSE software creates a full graphic design analysis output and cross-sectional drawings.

The software contains a quick link to Presto’s SPECMaker Specification Tool, a user friendly online program to build customized CSI-format specifications. The combination of the Geoweb MSE and SPECMaker Tool offers design and engineering firms a fast intuitive toolkit for creating design and specification documents.

The software was developed by Dov and Ora Leshchinsky, ADAMA Engineering, a leading geosynthetics industry software design company, based upon MSE design methods and the results of extensive testing of geocells and geogrids. Dov Leshchinsky, Ph.D., is a former University of Delaware professor and world renowned expert on slope stability, reinforced soil and associated design procedures.

Geoweb MSE is free, licensed software.
