lythospile
Axial capacity of piles in layered ground: shaft friction by the α, β and λ methods and K·σ'v·tan δ, base resistance by Meyerhof, Vesić and Janbu, the pile's weight, the water table, group efficiency and block failure, the required length, the settlement of a pile and of a group, rock-socketed piles by every published side shear correlation with their elastic settlement, and parametric / reliability studies with PDF reporting.
lythosmsew
Mechanically stabilised earth walls: external stability (sliding, overturning, eccentricity, bearing capacity by Terzaghi, Meyerhof, Hansen, Vesić and EN 1997-1), internal stability of steel strip and geosynthetic reinforcement (tensile, pullout, connection, sliding), corrosion and reduction factors, pseudo-static earthquake, ASD or LRFD, the required reinforcement length and a study over the wall height, with PDF reporting.
lythosbearing
Bearing capacity of shallow foundations: the general bearing capacity equation with the factors of Terzaghi, Meyerhof, Hansen, Vesić, EN 1997-1 and Skempton, eccentric and inclined loading, layered and two-layer ground, SPT / CPT / pressuremeter and rock methods, seismic loading, and parametric / reliability studies with PDF reporting.

lythossettle
Settlement analysis of shallow foundations and embankments: Boussinesq / 2:1 stress distribution, immediate settlement (Steinbrenner, Schmertmann), primary consolidation and secondary compression, Terzaghi time–settlement, and parametric / reliability studies with PDF reporting.
lythosspwa
Sheet pile wall analysis: limit equilibrium by the free-earth support method, Winkler beam-spring analysis with staged construction and tension-only anchors, seismic earth pressures, and parametric / reliability studies with PDF reporting.
