About us
Beck Engineering is an Australian-based engineering firm specialising in mining and rock mechanics analysis for the global mining industry. We provide advanced geotechnical solutions by applying realistic, physics-based simulation methods to forecast the performance of underground and open-pit mines. Our expertise spans a broad range of mining methods, geotechnical conditions, and commodities.
We share a common goal with our clients: To design, plan and operate safe, productive and reliable mines.
Our approach
At Beck Engineering, we work closely with our clients to integrate performance forecasts into practical mine designs, schedules, and operating plans. Our shared goal is to design, plan, and operate safe, productive, and reliable mines.
Our core focus is Simulation Aided Engineering (SAE) for challenging geotechnical environments. We specialise in rock mechanics design for extractive industries, complex civil excavations, hydromechanical interactions, and dynamic loading scenarios.

Tools and methodologies
We use robust methodologies to manage uncertainty and build sophisticated, large-scale 3D discontinuum models. These tools help us accurately forecast geotechnical performance and provide practical solutions to our clients.
- Our simulations are designed to:
- Make fewer assumptions
- Incorporate more of your measured data
- Better match field observations
- Improve forecast resolution
By integrating our simulations with your operations, we ensure that your designs evolve from concept to implementation, helping you manage risks and solve problems as they arise.
