GeoStudio Featured

Seamless integration, unparalleled analysis capabilities

The integrated GeoStudio software suite enables you to combine multiple analyses using different products into a single modeling project. Use this approach to model construction sequences, establish initial conditions, perform sensitivity analyses, model complex time sequences, or simply decompose a complex problem into a number of smaller, more manageable analyses.

GeoStudio 2D

GeoStudio 2D offers the foundational capability to perform limit equilibrium slope stability analysis in soil and rock in two dimensions. With three product plans to choose from, you can address problems that require the consideration of groundwater flow, finite element stresses or pore water pressures, or dynamic stresses.

GeoStudio 3D

GeoStudio 3D offers the foundational capability to perform Limit Equilibrium slope stability analysis for soil and rock in three dimensions. With two product plans to choose from, you can also address steady-state and transient groundwater flow in both saturated and unsaturated soil and rock.

Geotechnical Analysis for Academics 

Modernised academic offerings that bring PLAXIS and GeoStudio together under a unified subscription model, purpose built for education and research.

Free Classroom option

A free subscription available through the Bentley Education Program that provides students with access to PLAXIS and GeoStudio. This option enables students to gain hands on experience with industry leading geotechnical analysis tools at no cost, supporting learning as part of coursework and independent study.

Classroom WorkSuite option

Designed for university professors teaching core undergraduate topics, this affordable option provides access to more advanced PLAXIS and GeoStudio features to support classroom instruction and practical learning. The Classroom WorkSuite option is available as an annual or three year subscription, making it easier for institutions to plan and scale teaching programs.

Research option

Tailored for professors, researchers, and PhD candidates, the Research option provides access to the most advanced PLAXIS and GeoStudio capabilities for complex geotechnical analysis and modelling. Offered at a cost effective academic rate, this option supports advanced research projects and is available as an annual or three year subscription.

By unifying access across teaching and research, this modernised academic model makes it easier for universities and research institutes worldwide to adopt, manage, and expand their geotechnical analysis capabilities. It also helps students build familiarity with professional tools early in their education, supporting continuity from the classroom into future engineering careers.
