FRILO Geotechnics Soil Mechanics

FRILO Geotechnics Soil Mechanics is the program group for the digital evaluation and documentation of subsurface investigations - from field and laboratory tests to borehole logs and GIS-based management of exploration points.

OVERVIEW

Built for Structural Engineering Excellence

Subsurface exploration and documentation

Programs such as DCBOHR and DCSCHNITT record borehole logs, stratigraphic profiles, and geological sections in accordance with DIN 4023, DIN 4022, and ISO 22475-1.

Benefits

Why Choose FRILO Geotechnics Concept

Consistent documentation of subsurface exploration
From the borehole to the stratigraphic log, the entire exploration process is available in a consistent, audit-ready format.
Standard-compliant evaluation of all standard tests
Every laboratory test is linked to the relevant DIN or ISO standard, making traceability easier for reviewing authorities.
Centralized data management via DCGIS
Georeferenced management of all exploration points creates a unified data basis for follow-up projects.
Direct reuse in foundation statics
Determined soil parameters can be transferred directly into the structural verification programs of DC-Foundation Statics.
