    PLAXIS 2D Tutorial 04: Dry excavation using a tie back wall - ULS

    Application PLAXIS 2D
    Version PLAXIS 2D
    Date created 20 May 2017
    Date modified 20 May 2017

    In this tutorial a Ultimate Limit State (ULS) calculation will be defined and performed for the submerged construction of an excavation. The geometry model of Tutorial 03 will be used. The Design approaches feature is introduced in this example. This feature allows for the use of partial factors for loads and model parameters after a serviceability calculation has already been performed.

    In order to inspect the calculation results, please recalculate the Plaxis project: the results are not included to minimize the download size.

    The attached *.p2dxlog file contains all the commands to generate the model. With a Bentley Geotechnical SELECT Entitlement [GSE] (former PLAXIS-VIP) licence, you can use the commands runner to open the *.p2dxlog file and to execute all commands in one go, see also this instruction.
