Pile bearing capacity from CPT (cone penetration test) data
From CPT soundings the tool computes the ultimate pile resistance at each test location, processes the series statistically, and returns the design bearing capacity.

ISKRIT·Geo demo
By agreement
The work of a whole department: roles, history and modules linked together.
- Pile tests are tied to the site and its boreholes
- Capacity schedule across every test on the site
- Comparison with the soil-based calculation for the same site
Questions
Which method is used?
The practical method based on CPT data, SP 24.13330, table 7.16.
How is the design value obtained?
By statistical processing of the Fu series across the site with a reliability factor.
