Overview
Reliably analyse soil and rock to assess deformation and stability under the effects of ground-structure interaction, groundwater flow, heat flow or earthquakes. PLAXIS 2D is trusted by geotechnical engineers worldwide for analysing excavations, embankments, foundations, tunnels, and more.
Key Benefits
Work quickly and seamlessly
Intuitive geotechnical workflows with several input modes to easily create a subsurface model with structures, loads, or flow boundary conditions.
Simulate construction processes
Realistically assess stress, displacements and safety using constitutive models, a staged construction mode, and various calculation types.
Maximise safety
Accurately model ground-structure interaction and dewatering through advanced soil and rock material models, structural elements, and flow analysis.
Analyse fractured rock masses
Use discontinuity and reinforcement elements to assess surface settlements or rock mass responses to tunnelling, mining or reservoir depletion.
Automate workflows
Automate model build up and design process or build custom applications with Python scripting to run in PLAXIS 2D.
Integrated workflows
Avoid redundant data entry by leveraging integrations between PLAXIS and other Seequent products or easily import industry-standard CAD data formats.
