Geotechnical Report Data Extraction Agent
Extracts and structures key geotechnical parameters from soil boring reports, feeding structural and civil engineering foundation design with accurate, organized site data.
Structural and civil engineers receive geotechnical reports as dense narrative PDFs containing boring logs, soil classifications, and bearing capacity recommendations, and manually re-reading and transcribing these values into design calculations is slow and introduces the risk of misreading a critical value like allowable bearing pressure or groundwater depth
Design delays occur when engineers wait on manual data entry before foundation calculations can begin
This agent parses geotechnical reports, extracts key parameters such as soil classifications, bearing capacities, and groundwater levels by boring location, and structures the data for direct use in structural and civil design calculations
The agent ingests the geotechnical report PDF, using text and table extraction to identify boring log data, soil classification per unified soil classification system, allowable bearing pressures, groundwater depth, and any special foundation recommendations. It cross-references boring locations against the site plan to map spatial variation in soil conditions, structures the extracted data into a format compatible with structural design software, and flags any unusual or high-risk geotechnical findings such as expansive soils or high water table for engineer attention.
