Oasys.Alp.v19.2.0.15 Alp is a flexible piece of software designed for demanding projects. Users can tailor the options to suit, and see and share results in a clear graphical output. The software is simple to set up. Alp represents the pile as a series of elastic beam elements and the soil as a series of independent springs. Alp handles soil properties varying with depth, and users can specify water pressures as hydrostatic or piezometric. They can also Apply lateral loads or bending moments at any location down the pile. The same goes for full, lateral or bending moment restraint. Displacements can be imposed in the body of soil surrounding the pile, the top of which can be above ground level.
