About GTK-Field
GTK-Field is a field logging app for geotechnical site investigation. It works alongside you on site: record, describe, photograph, and produce a finished report on the same device. MODULES Trial pit with layer log and profile column Core drilling Dynamic probing Infiltration test Plate load test, dynamic Plate load test, static Sieve analysis with grading curve Sampling with lab tracking Site walkover General survey TO STANDARD Soil description and symbols to EN ISO 14688-1/2, presentation to DIN 4023. Probing to EN ISO 22476-2, sampling to EN ISO 22475-1, infiltration to OENORM B 4422-2. Static plate load test to OENORM B 4417 or DIN 18134, assessment to RVS 08.03.01 and RVS 08.15.01. The standards profile can be switched between Austria and Germany for each project. IN THE FIELD The app works entirely offline. All data stays on the device. Coordinates and elevation come from GPS or are entered by hand, photos belong to the exploration point. Reports are generated as PDF and can be viewed and shared directly on the device. ORDER Exploration points and samples receive sequential identifiers, and sample numbers are unique within a project. A sample register lists every sample of a project, with or without lab results. A combined export summarises the whole project with continuous page numbers. FREE GTK-Field is completely free. No subscription, no unlocking, no ads. NOTE GTK-Field is developed privately and is not a service of a chartered engineering practice. Calculated and estimated values must be checked by the user; professional responsibility for logging and interpretation remains with the user.
What’s new
Version 1.9.0 · Updated October 14, 2026
New: dynamic plate load test Entry of the three settlements and of the device Evd value, recalculation from the settlements. Device register with calibration. Assessment to RVS 08.03.01. Test series with summary sheet; photos and coordinates per point. New: static plate load test to ÖNORM B 4417 or DIN 18134 Plate 300 or 600 mm, one or three dial gauges. Ev1, Ev2 and the ratio Ev2/Ev1, load-settlement diagram. Assessment to RVS 08.03.01 and RVS 08.15.01 or to a requirement of your own. Sieve analysis 35 test sieves, preset by selectable sieve sets (Standard, EN 933-2, Geotechnics); every sieve can still be switched on and off individually. Up to three partial sievings per sample, calculated from the sum. Sand and gravel split into fine, medium and coarse to EN ISO 14688-1. The cobble fraction is recorded correctly even when material is retained on the coarsest sieve. The soil name lists cobbles and fines as secondary fractions (EN ISO 14688-2), e.g. slightly silty, slightly cobbly gravel. Values are kept after import or synchronisation. PDF Long project names are shown in full in the report header. The footer no longer overlaps and carries a date on every sheet. The complete report numbers its pages continuously. The sample register no longer breaks words. Umlauts are printed correctly.
