MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING

Purpose

We drive the evolution of geological engineering and geosciences to improve the world, collaboratively developing innovative solutions to challenging problems.


40+ YEARS OF GEOTECHNICAL INNOVATION

History

Professor Charles Fairhurst was the Head of the Department of Civil & Mineral Engineering at the University of Minnesota in the late 1970s. During his time at the University, Charles saw the potential for a consulting firm that could elevate geotechnical research and application to new heights.

1981

After much discussion and planning, Itasca Consulting Group, Inc., was founded in 1981, led by Charles, Magnus Bergman, and John Markham.

1982

In 1982, Peter Cundall, a former University of Minnesota professor, became one of ITASCA’s first engineering consultants. Peter brought unparalleled experience and expertise to ITASCA, most notably, his trailblazing research on numerical modeling. In those early years, Peter continued to develop his research alongside the ITASCA team.

1984

In 1984, the team released the first numerical modeling code of its kind, UDEC followed closely by FLAC in 198?.

Today, ITASCA has 10 offices around the world and continues to pioneer significant advancements in geotechnical engineering and software development.
