HeliCAP® Engineering Software

MR-Manufacturer

Manufactured by A.B. Chance, an ISO 9001 company, headquartered in Centralia, Missouri. With more than 97 years of earth-anchor research and development experience. A.B. Chance also markets to electric utilities, telecommunications and pipeline industries worldwide.

UA-USES, APPLICATIONS

HeliCAP® Engineering Software is an interactive program that provides helical anchor solutions for professionals designing foundation, retaining and guying projects. It operates in a PC Windows environment to calculate bearing capacities in tension and compression of an anchor inputs of soils, site and load inputs.

PR-PRODUCT PRESENTATION

See A.B. Chance web site: www.abchance.com for a free demonstration and how to obtain CD copy.

The only computer program of its kind, Chance® HeliCAP® Engineering Software is an easy-to-use interactive program that provides helical anchor solutions for foundation and retaining projects. Its graphics simulate "virtual anchoring" on screen in a PC Windows environment. It performs powerful, sophisticated calculations, based on your project parameters, to derive the proper Chance® anchor.

UA-USES, APPLICATIONS

You make these inputs:
1. Soil type, layer depths, strength parameters;
2. Anchor length, helix configuration, angle of installation, distance to datum;
3. Load — magnitude and direction.

It gives you this output:
Bearing capacities in tension and compression of an anchor in the given soil conditions.

TS-TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Available on CD, it includes Help screens and Reference materials as close as your keyboard. It gives you prompts to maintain control over essential criteria to effect the same process A.B. Chance anchor-application engineers employ daily to analyze problems and specify solutions.
