MacStars W
Stability Analysis of Reinforced Soils
The MacStars W software assists in the design of MSEW walls and gabion structures. The principal stability analyses performed are: global, internal, sliding, overturning, bearing capacity and settlement analysis. All the analyses are in accordance with the most common criteria and provide a detailed calculation report, cross sections and safety factors for the final design. Continual software development has allowed the design engineer to verify all the design aspects, taking into consideration the various Maccaferri reinforcement products and the different national standards.

GawacWin
Gabion Gravity Walls
The GawacWin program was developed to provide designers, engineers and builders with a quick and reliable way to execute the necessary analysis for the correct verification of the gabion retaining walls. This program is capable of verifying a variety of different situations which may occur in projects of this type and intends to minimise the situations that need specialised and complimentary analysis. This program uses in it analyses the well-known methods of Equilibrium Limit (adaptation of the Coulomb's theory), Rankine, Meyerhof and Bishop (SIMPLEX algorithm).

Macra 1
Bank Protection
The MACRA 1 - Bank Protection Software, which uses a Windows type structure, provides engineers with a rapid and efficient tool with which to conduct the stability analysis of watercourses cross-sections with respect to both water flow and wave motion. The MACRA 1 software enables the user to verify, under the hypothesis of uniform flow, a generic bank protection typology given the allowable tractive force and roughness coefficient, comparing for each material the maximum shear stress with the allowable tractive force.

Macra 2
Weirs
The MACRA 2 - Weirs Software was developed to conduct hydraulic and static analysis of gabion weirs. This program allows the user to check a large number of different types of weirs: simple vertical drop, with counter-weir, stepped weirs, sloped weirs, including stilling pool design. Included in the output of each run is a detailed longitudinal water profile over the structure together with a summary of all hydraulic and static checks made.
