Technologies, products, or services

GEO5 is a geotechnical engineering software suite developed by Fine Software, designed for the analysis, design, and modeling of various geotechnical structures. It is widely used by civil and geotechnical engineers to perform soil and foundation analyses, slope stability assessments, and the design of retaining structures. GEO5 stands out for its user-friendly interface and its ability to handle both simple and complex geotechnical problems.

GEO5 consists of separate modules, each designed to serve a specific geotechnical task. Rather than being a single standalone application, GEO5 is organized into specialized programs that allow users to select the tools needed for different types of analyses, such as foundations, retaining walls, tunnels, or slope stability. These modules are integrated with one another so that data and results from one analysis can be reused in other analyses.

Key Features of GEO5:

User-Friendly Interface: All programs in the GEO5 suite share a similar and intuitive interface. As a result, once users are familiar with one program, they can easily access and use other programs without requiring any special training. In addition, GEO5 supports up to 22 common languages, including a Vietnamese version.
Programs linked together: Users can transfer data between independent programs using Geoclipboard™, and some programs even allow the entire structure being analyzed to be transferred to another program for more detailed analysis.
Combination of Analytical Methods and FEM: Analytical methods enable fast and efficient design and verification, while the Finite Element Method (FEM) allows the calculation of structural problems with complex geometry, properties, and boundary conditions. Calculation data can also be transferred from analytical models to FEM models. Comparing results from these two independent methods enhances safety and objectivity in the calculation outcomes.
Many Standards Supported (including U.S.): GEO5 is widely used worldwide and features a dedicated system that updates various design standards and calculation factors specific to each national standard. From the initial setup stage, the software provides default data consistent with the selected standard, and users can also create their own customized settings.
Comprehensive Outputs: GEO5 outputs calculation results in both textual reports and detailed graphical illustrations that are clear and easy to customize according to user preferences (such as inserting company logos or attached images). Output data can be printed directly from the software, saved as PDF files, or exported to editable formats such as MS Word.
Guidance: GEO5 software is very easy to use and does not require any special training or usage courses. However, GEO5 still provides users with comprehensive support materials such as technical manuals, online guides, and instructional videos.
Reasonable investment cost, optimized budget: Instead of investing in a large and expensive software package, GEO5 allows users to purchase only the modules they actually need. This helps organizations optimize licensing costs while still ensuring long-term efficiency and value.
Geotechnical BIM: Supports seamless CAD/BIM integration with DWG/DXF import and export and IFC export compatible with BIM, enabling efficient sharing and coordination of geotechnical data throughout the design process.
Technical Support: Basic technical support is completely free for all GEO5 users.
