Hi All,
Is it possible to model open ended steel sigma "Σ" pile sections or PFC sections in Plaxis 3D?
Hi Greg,
Although PLAXIS offers an automated parameter determination for specific pile sections (e.g., solid circular, circular tube and solid square beams), it does not cover all cases. However, by manually inputting the embedded beam parameters, such as the cross-section area, A, and its respective moments of inertia (I3 and I2), you can define different sections by selecting the "User-defined" cross-section type.
