    Automating back analysis in RS2: practical calibration workflow for ground engineers

    Automating back analysis in RS2: practical calibration workflow for ground engineers

    First reported on Geoengineer.org – News

    30 Second Briefing

    Automating back analysis in Rocscience RS2 is enabling geotechnical teams to calibrate deep excavation models by iteratively adjusting soil stiffness, strength parameters and support properties against monitored wall deflections and ground movements. The workflow uses Python scripting and RS2’s API to batch-run hundreds of finite element models, compare calculated displacements with inclinometer data, and systematically narrow parameter ranges instead of relying on manual trial‑and‑error. This approach scales to large projects with multiple stages and construction sequences, improving confidence in design envelopes and trigger levels for observational method schemes.

    Technical Brief

    • Misfit between measured and computed displacements is quantified using objective functions, not visual judgement.
    • Parameter search is constrained within pre-defined geotechnical ranges, avoiding unrealistic stiffness or strength combinations.

    Geotechnical Software for Modern Teams

    Centralise site data, logs, and lab results with GEODB-io, CMRR-io, and HYDROGEO-io.

    ABAX Tachograph for light vans: SMT2 compliance and data workflow notes for fleets

    ABAX has launched ABAX Tachograph to bring 2.5–3.5‑tonne light commercial vehicles into compliance with the EU Mobility Package’s Smart Tachograph 2 (SMT2) rules taking effect on 1 July for international transport. The system integrates LCVs and existing HGVs on a single Smart Operations platform, adding automated tachograph data downloads, violation analysis and driver data management rather than a separate standalone unit. ABAX is targeting fleets facing the 2026 full compliance deadline, aiming to simplify cross‑border operations and reduce manual admin around drivers’ hours enforcement.

    Liebherr extends MyLiebherr digital services: fleet data insights for engineers

    Liebherr is rolling out its expanded MyLiebherr Performance and MyLiebherr Maintenance digital services for earthmoving and material handling fleets in Australia, the UK, Ireland, Canada and the USA, with six months’ free access. The maintenance module gives workshop managers a fleet-wide status overview with traffic light condition coding, cause-specific alerts (e.g. upcoming services, low fluid levels), machine-level service histories and geo-tracked locations to plan bundled interventions. The performance module tracks utilisation, idle hours, fuel consumption versus a global average, and weighing data, enabling group comparisons by machine type or operation to tighten scheduling and cut operating costs.

    Munnelly’s Weston Analytics hire: data-led logistics strategy for project teams

    Munnelly Group has appointed former Heathrow and Wilson James executive Tom Emery as managing director of Weston Analytics to accelerate its technology, data and innovation strategy across construction logistics and project delivery. Emery, who has led large operational portfolios and digital transformation in aviation, transport, security and workforce operations, will build scalable digital and analytical tools to support faster operational decision-making and better use of site and programme data. CEO Paul David Munnelly said Weston Analytics is central to the group’s Target2030 plan and its role as a full project lifecycle delivery partner.
