EHSPAK
Modeling soil properties accurately has always been a great concern to structural modelers. Now, using the EHSPAK, the modeler can include the elastic half space (soil profile) to the structural model in a one step and without any iterations. The EHSPAK transforms the soil profile into a stiffness matrix that replaces the soil parameters introduced in the PLPAK's 'Soil Support object'.
Using the EHSPAK decreases the soil profile modeling time, increases modeling accuracy and leads to more economic (value engineered) results.
