TZPILE for Windows

Category	Piles (single)
Publisher	Ensoft Inc
Platform	Win3x, Win95/98
Status	Commercial
Description	TZPILE for Windows computes the load-settlement relationships of vertically-loaded piles, where t-z curves are used for side resistance and q-w curves are used for load transfer in end bearing. The t-z and q-w curves can be internally-generated for both driven piles and drilled shafts with the input of information on the supporting soil and on the geometry of the pile. If a field-load test is performed, the computed curves can be "calibrated" by modifying input information to get agreement with the experimental curves. The calibrated, site-specific curves can then be used to design the production piles, which may vary from the test piles in geometry and stiffness. The main output is pile-head movement as a function of applied load. However, for any given load, the program can also present the load and movement along the length of the pile. In addition, the graphics module can plot any of the generated t-z curves or the q-w curve.
