Rapid Geotechnical Reporting Program

Product News Friday, June 2, 2006: Gaea Technologies Ltd.

We are very pleased to announce the release of our Rapid Geotechnical Reporting program. This program represents a new method for creating all types of geotechnical engineering reports.

Rapid Geotechnical Reporting has been designed to minimize the amount of time required to generate geotechnical engineering reports and to maximize the flexibility of the final report. A variety of reports can be created, the program currently comes with templates for conventional shallow and deep foundations. More templates are always being added and we welcome your suggestions.

The Rapid Geotechnical Reporting program is used to collect answers to pre-designed questions in a template. These answers are then merged and a standard report is generated in Microsoft Word. The merging process allows the user to insert different responses and paragraphs into the report depending upon how a question is answered.

Features of the program include:

• Significantly reduces time to create final report.
• Produces a consistent, high-quality report.
• Eliminates the possibility of cut and paste errors that occur when modifying old reports.
