With the rapid economic growth, China has made considerable progress in the development of engineering. Geotechnical engineering, social development, due to its good practicability, has been effectively helpful in civil engineering construction projects, and can also play a positive role in areas related to rock and land engineering technology. Geotechnical engineering requires constant innovation to ensure a sustainable and successful development of it. Since innovation is the basis of the development of any industry, only by constant innovation can an industry remain strongly competitive in its developing process. Therefore, based on the practical experience in geotechnical engineering, this paper aims to give a brief description of the technological innovation methods and practices in geotechnical engineering, in order to promote the innovation and development of geotechnical engineering technology.
