DeepEX is a powerful advanced geotechnical application with all essential modules for the design and analysis of deep excavation projects. It is trusted by more than 2000 engineers and engineering companies worldwide. More than 10000 projects have been designed using DeepEX.

The understanding of unsaturated soil mechanics principles is of interest to a wide spectrum of geotechnical problems associated with soils above water table and compacted soils. Unsaturated soil between ground surface and water table is the interface zone between soil and environment. The unsaturated zone plays an important role in determining the impact of climate change such as increasingly frequent rainfall of high intensity or prolonged drought on geotechnical structures.

In many construction projects at which the working space is limited, a vertical deep excavation is often the only viable option. Technically, SNI 8460:2017 classifies the deep excavation as an excavation with depth greater than 3.0 m. For maintaining soil stability, a combination of embedded wall, struts, ground anchor, etc., are commonly used together.
