Welcome to the website of the Institute of Geotechnics, Faculty of Civil Engineering BUT in Brno.
Our institute provides teaching in bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral study programs, including supervision of bachelor’s, master’s and dissertation theses.
We also provide, in the laboratories of the faculty and the AdMaS research center, a wide range of laboratory tests of soils and rocks. We offer support for technical practice in mathematical modeling. In this area, the members of the institute have long-term experience in solving a wide range of geotechnical tasks (e.g. deformation and stability analysis of earth dams, analysis of deep construction pits, assessment of embankments). Based on this experience, we are able to process professional or expert opinions.
Subsequently, we are able to process professional or expert opinions.
In cooperation with industrial partners, we conduct applied research on current problems in geotechnical engineering. As part of these activities and independent activities of the institute, we design our own software for specific geotechnical tasks. Last but not least, in cooperation with other entities, we are dedicated to the implementation of geotechnical structures and material models for soils and rocks into complex systems for design based on the finite element method.
