New features and expanding capabilities in the Naue Portal

What’s new in the Naue Portal for geotechnical planning

Digital planning tools are becoming increasingly important in geotechnical engineering and infrastructure projects. Whether for temporary roads, reinforced structures or bearing capacity calculations, engineers and planners expect fast access to reliable design tools that support efficient workflows and technically sound decisions. With the latest update, the Naue Portal introduces new functionalities and lays the foundation for additional tools and international features.

New calculator functions and the foundation for upcoming portal features

One of the key additions is the extended Paved & Unpaved Road – Bearing Capacity calculator, which now also includes the CBR-UK method. This provides additional support for projects using a UK-calibrated CBR approach.

Alongside this, several technical calculator functions within the portal have been expanded further, including new comparison charts in the Bearing Capacity calculator and updates related to report generation and layer spacing calculations across different design methods.

At the same time, the underlying portal architecture has been restructured to support a broader international rollout of future portal functions. This creates the basis for further additions such as new language versions, extended SolutionFinder integrations and additional engineering calculators. The goal remains clear: providing planners, engineers and project stakeholders with direct access to practical digital geotechnical tools in a structured and globally accessible environment.

Benefits of the Naue Portal

• Faster planning with smart calculators
• Central access to technical product information
• Standardized workflows and outputs
• Less manual effort and more streamlined workflows
• Scalable base for upcoming features

Explore the Naue Portal

The Naue Portal brings together the SolutionFinder and specialised DesignSuite calculators in one browser-based platform. Depending on the application, users can identify suitable geosynthetic solutions, perform project-specific calculations, compare design options and document results for further project planning.
