How can I avoid displacements in the corners of my model, to observe the displacements in the area of my structure.

Question

I reduced the model to remove that area but displacements continue to appear at the edges that avoid evaluating the structure.

Dear Juan, 
 I would carefully check how the fixities are applied in your project. By default, PLAXIS considers the model extremities as where fixities are applied. 
 However, when one is making changes to the geometry, surface displacements can be introduced manually to define the correct fixities per case. This can be done in Structures mode and confirmed after the mesh is generated.
