ArdanRisk
Secure the future ahead.
Six geotechnical hazards. Deterministic physics equations. OIQ-compliant screening output. Built for engineers, insurers, and municipalities.
Six hazards covered
Deterministic physics. Auditable results.
Bearing Capacity
Vesic / Brinch Hansen
CFEM-compliant. Allowable stress for shallow footings and foundations.
Liquefaction
Boulanger & Idriss 2016
Seismic liquefaction risk based on normalized CPT/SPT and NRCan seismic hazard.
Frost Heave
NBCC + Quebec frost depth
Frost heave potential based on regional frost index and soil composition.
Settlement
Elastic + consolidation
Immediate and long-term settlement estimates. Essential for clay foundation design.
Slope Stability
Bishop / Spencer
Minimum factor of safety for natural slopes and embankments. Pore pressure sensitivity.
Seismic Hazard
NRCan Seismic Hazard Tool
Peak ground acceleration (PGA) and response spectra for seismic design.
OIQ — ArdanRisk produces screening-level data only. Site-specific geotechnical investigation by a licensed Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) is required for design.
Use Cases
One risk engine, three industries
Engineering Reports
Preliminary hazard summary for proposal stage. CFEM-referenced, OIQ-compliant.
Insurance Underwriting
Portfolio-level risk scoring. OEP/AEP curves for catastrophe modeling.
Municipal Asset Management
Prioritize infrastructure renewal based on subsurface risk.
