• Simulating Oedometer test results

    Hi, May I please receive some assistance with the following query, I've been attempting to simulate laboratory oedometer tests using the Soft Soil Creep Model and the Soft Soils model and found that the curves don't seem to match. Please refer to…
  • Soft soil creep model- Initial condition

    Hi, I am using the soft soil creep model to predict the settlement due to consolidation and creep for a foundation. I am wondering whether it's necessary to introduce an intermediate (dummy) phase with large time interval after the initial conditions…
  • SS vs SSC

    New user, in need of guidance trying to figure out what model is best for the analysis of fill under a building over deep, soft soils. Does the SS model calculate only primary consolidation and the SSC only secondary creep settlement as a result of…
  • Creep calculation in SSC model

    Hi everyone, I have a question about the creep formulation in the Soft Soil Creep model. The SSC model starts from the assumption that all the inelastic strain are creep strain and depends on the load application time. The volumetric strain rate…
