WALLAP – Shoring Design Software

  • Suitable for: Geotechnical Engineers, Structural Engineers, Civil Engineering Graduates who are looking for a job in engineering consultancies in construction industry
  • Chosen by: Professionals working in Rix Group, ADE Group, JSBC Consulting, Smart Structures Australia, Bonacci Group, etc.
  • Length: Total 6 hours
  • Access: 6 months access on mobile & PC

What is WALLAP:

WALLAP is a powerful and user-friendly software for analysing the stability of cantilevered and propped retaining walls. WALLAP is suitable for the analysis of both temporary works, such as sheet pile walls, and permanent works such as reinforced concrete diaphragm walls and contiguous bored pile walls. When modelling in Wallap, defining right soil parameters and correct construction stages are super crucial as it will result in totally different deflection and internal forces.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Learn geotechnical principles behind designing a shoring wall
  • Gain primary knowledge of using WALLAP, from modelling to analysis options
  • Review structural design of shoring wall components like piles

Course Outline:

  • Introduction to WALLAP and review of WALLAP Capacity
  • Introduction to different type of retaining walls for deep excavations
  • Guidance on reviewing the geotechnical report and gathering necessary parameters
  • Modelling soil properties , ground water in WALLAP
  • Define wall types and  struts, anchors properties
  • Model external loads and surcharges
  • Model construction staging
  • Interpret analysis results
  • Introduction to limit state design principles
  • Structural shoring wall design

About Instructor

Joel Huang

Joel is an associate geotechnical Engineer in one of the biggest geotechnical consultancies in Australia having 11 years of experience in the construction industry. His skill is specialised in numerical modelling / finite element analyses for problems related to soil-structure interactions such as slope stabilisation, embankment, tunnel, shoring walls, deep basement excavation, raft slab, piled foundation and basement dewatering. He's been played a key role in projects like high-rise buildings adjacent or directly over rail and road tunnels, super deep basements (27 m deep), high-rise buildings with huge piles and pile groups, raft slabs in the water-tight basements and etc. He majored in Masters of Geotechnical Engineering from UNSW.

Great Geotechnical course as well as WALLAP training!

Well explained, and good coverage of background theory to understand WALLAP inputs and ouputs.

Detailed soil investigation and testing to arrive at realistic soil parameters

Very good course, the presentation is excellent, question time is also very informative. I would find a few worked examples very useful for future practice

Have gained a more thorough understanding on WALLAP modelling and analysis

Now i can confidently perform a Wallap analysis knowing its capabilities and limitations, and perform proper sanity checks on the modelling output.
