GEO – The mission and history /1989-1999/
• User-friendly geotechnical software
• Save time, give reliable results
• Try to cover all geotechnical problems
• Software interesting for one engineer as well as bigcompany => Individual programs, modular system => lower costs
• Based on Czech standards
• Czech and Slovak markets only (15M people)
=> Great success, hundreds installation
• DOS version, first graphic interface GEO3 (1994)
2
GEO4 – Windows version (2000)
• 20 individual programs, new FEM, Tunnel• English localization • GEO4 – good sales (UK, Spain, Poland, Hungary, India,
Malaysia, Singapore) even it was based on CZ standards• First dealers network, first international feedback
Need for international version => GEO5
3
GEO5 – first international version (2004)
• More theories(earth pressures, settlement, bearing cap.)
• New possibilities (earthquake, CPTs) • English and metric units• All coefficients and partial factors could be changed by user• Recommended settings for various countries• Built-in help • Localization to other languages (Spanish, Polish,
Hungarian, Greek, Russian, Turkish)

GEO5 now :
• 3000 users in 100 countries• 17 language localizations• Many standards, codes, theories• Verification methodology /Eurocode, LRFD, Safety
factor, Limit states, Chinese/
• Two versions per year, free update for Maintenance users
• Bentley – GSA Geostructural Analysis
• 28 different programs – used for:

Conclusion of part 1
• GEO5 is software developed for engineers• The best way – try demoversion
(the only limitation – not saving data, do not print results)• More info – contact us on our booth or contact our dealers
