FIDES WALLS-LT

Entry-level version of our tried-and-tested WALLS shoring programme

WALLS-LT is the smaller version of our proven WALLS shoring programme at an attractive price. Sufficient for the vast majority of all problems that arise when verifying shoring walls, the planner has an efficient and tried-and-tested, state-of-the-art excavation programme at his disposal. In WALLS-LT, various types of shoring can be verified as freely cantilevered or multiple back-anchored wall constructions. Thanks to the intuitive, graphical programme input and the clear, structured results output in our new results browser, WALLS-LT offers the planning engineer the best possible support and thus contributes significantly to efficient, time-saving processing. The programme supports calculation and verification in accordance with current European standards with NADs for Germany and other European countries. Special requirements from EAB and EAU are fully supported, older basic construction standards can still be selected, e.g. for recalculations.

Performance features
