OpenGTi - Open Geotechnical Intelligence

Manage your knowledge:
Welcome to our platform dedicated to sharing knowledge in geotechnical engineering. Geotechnical engineering encompasses both advanced numerical analyses using sophisticated soil constitutive models and more practical tasks such as excavation and backfilling. This platform serves as a comprehensive knowledge repository, offering young engineers easy access to both fundamental principles and advanced concepts in this dynamic field. In some cases, Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have also been applied to enhance analysis and design. I hope you discover something insightful and inspiring here.

About the Founder:
Since 2005, WaiLeung Ng has been on a journey through the world of geotechnical engineering, taking on projects ranging from foundations and deep excavations to slope stability, ground improvement, and instrumentation. Along the way, he has worked with design consultants, contractors, and government bodies, each giving him a different perspective on the challenges faced in our industry. What drives him is a passion for turning complex engineering theories into something practical and easy to understand — knowledge that young engineers and practitioners can apply with confidence.
