NovoLiq is designed as a very flexible and comprehensive soil liquefaction analysis software which can compare more than 10 different methods. NovoLiq covers the following field tests:
-Standard Penetration Test (SPT) -Becker Penetration Test (BPT) -Shear Wave Velocity (Vs)
Soil resistance (CRR) is calculated based on: -Japanese Bridge Code -Chinese Code -Seed et al. (1983) -Tokimatsu-Yoshimi (1983) -Shibata (1981) -Kokusho et al. (1983) -Vancouver Task Force (2007) -NCEER Workshop (1996) -University of California at Davis (2004) -Cetin & Seed (2004)
Some other features: -Unlimited soil layers -Import from gINT, Winlog and Excel files -Metric & Imperial units -Lateral displacement and vertical settlements during liquefaction (6 methods) -Effect of ground improvement on liquefaction -Cyclic Resistance Ratio (10 methods) -Probability of liquefaction (Youd and Noble / Cetin et al) -Depth (overburden) correction factor (9 options) -All other SPT/BPT/Vs corrections (>6 options) -Direct conversion of Becker Density Test to SPT (2 methods, including friction effect) -Magnitude Scaling Factor (8 options) -Fines content correction (2 options) -Depth Reduction Factor Rd (3 options) -Relative Density (5 options) -Very powerful report builder -Export output tabular data as Microsoft Excel and graphic formats such as BMP, JPG, etc. -Post-liquefaction lateral displacement and settlement based on different methods
