Geotechnical and Structural
Design & analysis Software
Geotechnical
Model and analyze complex geotechnical projects, including slope stability, excavations, embankments, tunneling shallow foundations, and monopiles. Enjoy our powerful calculation motor, design visualization, and customizable scripting to meet all your geotechnical needs.
Concrete Suite
Model and analyze concrete structural constructions with our comprehensive calculation package, including automatic interactions between wall sections or completely uncoupled from other wall sections, beams, and columns. Our structural design software helps you save engineering hours, concrete, and reinforcement.
effecient and safe designs of complex structures within budget
Find the optimal balance, walking the narrow ridge
Engineering is about finding the optimal design within budget. Optimal design in terms of a solution that uses minimal materials but equally important that can be constructed and built with minimal effort. As engineers we do our best to find this solution but are always working under budgets both in terms of strict time plans and economy. The engineers finest task is finding the balance between these to contradictory goals: finding the optimal solution in minimal time. Our software is made to help you find that perfect balance and keep you walking safely on the narrow ridge, delivering great designs with minimal engineering hours.
Traditional

Plane strain (2D) analyses is a fast and powerful option for many cases. Always a good starting point.
The Gx Way

The GX way: In cases where plane strain (2D) is a poor choice of model, convert your 2D section to 3D with a single mouse click.
LESS TIME ON REPORTING AND MORE TIME ON Designing

MAKE DOCUMENTATION THE LESS OF YOUR WORRIES

GX reports include: clear visual display of your model including soil levels, soil data, boundary conditions, etc. Key results include Load-Displacements curves, Factor of Safety, and section forces/moments for structural elements. Include any result set ot figure with ease
CS reports include: clear visual display of structural geometry, material data, reinforcement, loads etc. All input values complte documented for third party check. Key results include complete code check of all walls, columns and beams according to the EN1992 standard. Check of maximum strain levels in all concrete and rebar provided automatically.
Create visual pleasing and easy readable documentation in no time. See below for example reports in OPTUM GX and OPTUM CS.
FASTER AND SAFER DESIGNS — AND WITH HIGhER PROFIT
How do we save time compared to traditional FEA ways?
Optimized Solvers — Less Hassle, More Productivity
Our unique Optimization-Based Finite Element Method (OBFEM) ensures that even the most complex tasks are completed quickly and without errors.
Nonlinear FEA calculations, are often a real time buster where you tend to spend more time adressing convergence problems and adjusting convergence criteria. All done to get results so you can finalize your design. With Optum CE's unique OBFEM, this is a thing in the past.

MAXIMIZE YOUR SOFTWARE INVESTMENT
Purchase A 1-DAY ONBOARDING course for your employees
At Optum CE, we understand the importance of ensuring that your business gets the most out of your software investments. Our customized onboarding courses are designed to get your engineers going with the relevant software package in just a single day. Although our software is intuitive and user-friendly, we strongly recommend that you take advantage of a course. This ensures that everyone on your team has the necessary prerequisites to utilize the full potential of the software. With just a single day of training, your team can gain a deep understanding of OPTUM CS or GX, enabling a more efficient and seamless use. We recommend starting with one of the projects you are working on. This way, the application gets under the skin in the way you normally work and facilitates the implementation. Therefore, our course is not only an investment in the software but also an investment in your employees' professional development while at the same time solving an actual project. With an onboarding course you can maximize the return on your Optum software investment and better project forward — it is a small effort for a significant return.
