Plaxis 2D Features

Explore key features and workflows

Soil Analysis

Soil Analysis

Analyse soil behaviour under a range of stress conditions. Choose constitutive models such as Mohr-Coulomb, Soft Soil and Hardening Soil (small strain) to represent real soil response in your analysis.

Soil-Structure Interactions

Soil-Structure Interactions

Simulate retaining walls, anchors, geotextiles and other structural elements interacting with the surrounding soil. Stage construction phases so your analysis follows the actual build sequence.

Flow Analysis

Flow Analysis

Model steady-state and transient groundwater flow, seepage and consolidation. Evaluate water pressures and their effect on soil stability under changing groundwater conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Bimeco an authorized Bentley partner?

Yes. Bimeco is an authorized Bentley channel partner in Singapore. We quote and invoice in SGD with payment terms of up to 30 days, and our digital delivery consultants support adoption and implementation of Bentley software.

How is Plaxis 2D licensed, and how much does it cost?

The standard option is a 12-month Virtuoso subscription for one user, including 2 Keys for training or services. Plaxis 2D starts at SGD 6,600, Advanced at SGD 8,245 and Ultimate at SGD 11,750. A 3-year subscription starts at SGD 19,800 and perpetual licences are quoted on request.

What is Plaxis 2D used for?

Plaxis 2D is used to simulate soil behaviour and soil-structure interaction in geotechnical engineering projects, including excavations, foundations and retaining structures.

Does Plaxis 2D support groundwater flow analysis?

Yes. Steady-state groundwater flow and consolidation analysis are included from Plaxis 2D Advanced. Transient groundwater flow and fully coupled flow-deformation analysis require Plaxis 2D Ultimate.

What file formats does Plaxis 2D support?

Plaxis 2D imports and exports geometry from CAD files. Results can be copied from output tables, exported to Paraview or compiled with the report generator, and Python scripting connects results to external applications.
