Flexible retaining structures are typical features in projects where temporary works are necessary, such as cofferdam design, and Oasys Frew enables engineers to analyse the behaviour of such.

As a key precursor element to build new structures such as bridges or steep embankments adjacent to site boundaries or sensitive assets, either forming cuttings or via bottom-up construction Frew assists engineers make informed design decisions about flexible retaining wall structures.

Civil engineers and geotechnical engineers responsible for routine design of flexible retaining wall structures use Oasys Frew as part of their toolbox, addressing the need of calculations that cannot easily be replicated using spreadsheets. Frew provides users with a validated, robust and user-friendly method of calculations, ensuring acceptable and appropriate QA and QC standards are met.

A comprehensive package on its own, when used alongside Oasys PDisp and Oasys XDisp, Frew allows geotechnical engineers to produce more advanced and comprehensive models and make informed design decisions.
