https://communities.bentley.com/products/geotech-analysis/f/forum/242920/error-accumulation-in-plaxis-2d-modelsDoes the error in a Plaxis 2D file keep accumulating and affect the results of another Plaxis 2D file that is developed using &#39;save as&#39; from the parent Plaxis 2D model? I mean if I have a Plaxis 2D file that has been progressively &quot;saved as&quot; over monthsen-USTelligent Community 12https://communities.bentley.com/thread/757628?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 15 Mar 2023 12:54:27 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:97c0de82-d16c-4aed-be37-acf6b9b6bcf2Puneet Rathi<p>Okay, thanks for your prompt response. I somehow believed that we should not progressively keep &#39;saving as&#39; the same Plaxis file as the calculation errors from the previous Plaxis file affects the result in the new file. However, now I understand from your response that it is not true.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/757626?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 15 Mar 2023 12:49:33 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:f3c56913-8121-489a-9cd2-e8170d5aff9cStefanos Papavasileiou<p>Dear Puneet,</p> <p>I am not sure I understand what you mean by &quot;error files&quot;.&nbsp;</p> <p>A PLAXIS project can be &quot;saved as&quot; as many times as you want. Then, each project becomes independent.</p> <p>If the original project has already calculated phases, these will be copied in the &quot;saved as&quot; projects, too.</p> <p>But if you make geometry changes, then you need to re-mesh which means the calculation is erased and you need to re-calculate the whole project as this is considered a new analysis.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
