Whether your project is civil or mining based, above ground or below, RS2 enables you to effectively analyze stress/deformation, stability, support design, and staged excavations with ease. Factor in groundwater flow with RS2’s integrated seepage analysis tool for steady-state and transient conditions of dams, embankments, slopes, tunnels, and excavations. Automate your slope stability analysis with shear strength reduction which performs a finite element analysis to identify the critical strength reduction factor. Embankments can be analyzed using slope stability, groundwater seepage, consolidation, or dynamic analysis. RS2 includes groundwater and dynamic analysis tools in addition to a vast library of advanced constitutive models to capture the sudden loss of strength due to liquefaction. Developed for both open-pit and underground excavations, analyze stability, stress/deformation, bench design, and support design of underground caverns and openings.

DeepEX is a powerful, advanced geotechnical application for the design and analysis of deep excavation projects. It enables engineers to perform structural and geotechnical design of any deep excavation model in one package, supporting wall types such as soldier piles, secant/tangent piles, sheet piles, and diaphragm walls, multiple support systems, including anchored walls, braced excavations with struts or rakers, top-down excavations with slabs and deadman walls, and allows modelling in 2D or full 3D. It supports various analysis methods, including limit equilibrium, non-linear (using elastoplastic Winkler springs) and finite element analysis; it integrates both structural and geotechnical checks, works with international steel member databases and design codes, offers automated workflows for rapid modelling (including voice-command entry and model wizards), and can export drawings and sketches or immersive 3D visualizations.
