Welcome to LimitState:GEO

LimitState:GEO is a groundbreaking software product for solving geotechnical stability problems. Its unique analysis methodology and interactive user interface allow LimitState:GEO to be more comprehensive than simple hand-based methods but far easier to use than Finite Element Analysis.

• Help documentation - access the entire user manual from within the software - simply press F1 at any time or use the 'Help' menu.
• Tool tips - these identify the various buttons, tools, and controls in the work area by name and appear when you hover the pointer over the item you want to identify.
• Help buttons - these appear in dialog boxes and will open the Help window on the related topic.
