This state-of-the-art software
program is also fully
integrated with gINT, Winlog,
LogPlot and GeoSystem's LD4
suite of products.
SPT
is the most widely used
in-situ geotechnical test in
the world. Geotechnical
engineers have always been
looking for correlations of SPT with soil properties. The
problem raises when we get
used to using one formula for
correlation and forget about
it's limitations and validity
of the resulted numbers. To
have a comprehensive
understanding of how to use
these formulas we need to
compare as many as possible
correlations,
remove those methods which are
not applicable to our project
(or soil type)
and get an engineering average of
the selected
methods. We have developed
NovoSPT to help you
overcome this steps!
NovoSPT is designed for
correlating Standard
Penetration Test (SPT/ DCPT)
blow counts (N60)
and estimation of more than
27 geotechnical
engineering soil
properties
based on more than
246 equations and
formulas extracted from
60 geotechnical books
and papers. The following
features are part of the
incorporated capabilities in
NovoSPT program
(download

 |
Supporting both Metric
& Imperial units
systems |
 |
Bearing Capacity Analysis
tool (for footing width
range and 5 equations) |
 |
All SPT correction factors
including rod length,
energy, sampling
method, borehole diameter,
ground water, overburden, etc.
|
 |
Plotting the graph of N60
and N1(60) with
depth |
 |
Save and Load features.
All your calculations can
be saved into
*.spt files and you can
re-load your project later
|
 |
Importing SPT/DCPT data
from gINT, WinLog,
LogPlot project
files with full customized
data structure (see
our gINT partnership) |
 |
Consistency classification
for all soil types |
 |
Liquefactions resistance
ratio (CRR)
|
 |
Pile's unit end bearing
and skin friction |
 |
Shallow footing's bearing
capacity and settlement |
 |
Correlation to other
soil properties
including DR,
F,
ES, VS,
Gmax, EPMT,
Pl, BPT, fs, Qall,
S, mV, Su,
etc. |
 |
Printing the report |
 |
Plotting the scatter graph
for each correlated
parameter based on
different methods |
 |
Comparing all selected
methods along the borehole
depth |
 |
Importing SPT data and
soil layers data from text
files (*.txt) |
 |
Exporting all tables and
graphs to MS Excel and
image formats |
 |
Standard
user manual (Help)
with descriptive
instructions on how to use
the software. |
 |
If you use
Wildcat Dynamic
Penetrometer
for your field
investigation, you
recommend you using NovoSPT for
processing its data!

Choose appropriate item from
the left menu to get detailed
information about this
unique software. Click on
the following video and watch
NovoSPT in action:
All charts can be separately
printed, saved as text file,
MS Excel file and even
exported to graphic formats
like JPG, BMP, TIFF, etc.
Since bearing capacity and
settlement of shallow
foundation and piles are also
incorporated into this
program, user may enter as
many SPT numbers in depth as
necessary. NovoSPT will
calculate the average N60
below the foundation according
to this data.

Totally
more than
246 formulas,
correlations and
methods are implemented from
60 papers and reference
books. Complete list of
references of books and papers
is available here. You can
download and install a FREE
trial version of NovoSPT
with FULL features from
here.
Statistical interpretation of
correlations for each soil
parameter is presented in
NovoSPT. This new and exciting
feature is necessary for our
users to better understand the
variation of correlated
results when dealing with tens
of numbers:

One
of the features of NovoSPT
is plotting all the results
and correlated values for a
specific soil parameter in one
graph to facilitate comparison
and choice of the best
estimated value for that
parameter. You can even select
your favourite correlation
methods to be plotted and
compared together (see picture
on left).
The powerful
report builder in
NovoSPT summarizes all
correlated results in a
good-looking, printable report
in form of tables and graphs.
See the complete list of
correlated soil parameters
based on Standard Penetration
Test (SPT) in NovoSPT
software.
The
new innovative "Cross
Correlation with Depth"
feature enables user to plot
the variation of a specific
soil parameter along depth of
borehole, correlated based on
some correlation methods to
ease comparison of correlated
values in depth.
