Dear community, this is regarding the calculation of the bearing capacity of shallow foundation. I would like to know your opinion on the best approach that yields the most realistic values. Can you provide me with documented examples that have a step…

I am doing a displacement controlled analysis in plaxis 3d for a piled raft model. But it is failing after a certain value of displacement, can I incresse the max value of tolerated error?

Here raft is modelled as a volume element and piles as embedded pile element, and a negative interface is given between raft and soli. Please kindly help as the results are coming same for the pile head connection condition.
