  • 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…

  • Well foundation Sinking

    Hi Is there any possibility to check well sinking analysis in plaxis??? How to incorporate the reduction of skin friction due to the projection in well curb and dredging action?????

  • basically loss of stability in Plaxis 3D

    Hi, is it possible to calculate a basically loss of stability as overturning, sliding and bearing failure of the foundation in Plaxis 3D?

  • Bending moment for complex foundation

    Hi, I'm making a base for a lattice mast in Plaxis 3D. The foundation takes the loads from the mast at four points. What is the best way to make bending moments Mx, My, Mz at all points?

  • Piled-Raft Modelling in PLAXIS 3D

    Hi, there. I want to ask a question regarding piled-raft modelling in PLAXIS 3D. Currently, I am modelling the raft as a volume and the piles as embedded beam. As in the theory stated by Poulos (1994), the load-settlement curve of the piled-raft foundation…

  • How to embedded a shallow foundation in Plaxis 2d (e.g 0.5m)

    Hi Dears, I have tried many way to excavate or add a plate at a certain depth in plaxis to simulate the embedement depth, but none of them gave a reasonable answer. Is there any one can help of how to embedded a foting in Plaxis 2d? I could not…

  • Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundation - Plaxis 2d

    Hi Dears, I am trying to do comparison between my hand calculation and Plaxis 2d. I face a problem in how to embedded a shallow foundation (i.e. circular footing) in soil. This is what I found everyone calculating it in Plaxis However, I want…

  • Hoek-Brown - pore pressure and Safety Factor

    Hello everyone, My first question here in the forum! I'm modeling a set of foundations on weathered granite and I'm using the Hoek-Brown (HB) model. Everything in the material model works perfectly fine, however, three questions regarding the material…

  • How do i model footing to measure the bearing capacity and consolidation using PLAXIS 3D V21

    Hello. I am new to PLAXIS 3d V21. I have been learning PLAXIS 3D V20 which seemed to be much simpler than the current V21. I wanted to design a shallow footing setting on the ground surface. I want to measure the bearing capacity of the ground and…

  • Jointed rock model- Dam foundation

    Hi, I'm attempting to use the Jointed rock model in plaxis2D as the foundation for modifications to an existing dam project. However, my initial condition is collapsing. There is no issue and I am able to conduct the entire stages when utilising other…

  • Fatal rror while generating mesh

    Hey, I am trying to calculate pullout capacity of a suction caisson for my thesis at the end of Aug. I am new at using Plaxis (less than a month) and I've found a tutorial on plaxis website. I have followed it through and got results. However, the…

  • Floating windfarm anchor pile design

    #PREdesign #Firstdesign #not-final-design Hey, I'd like to back to give additional informations about my last question. As i have already said, i'm geologist, student in M2 geosciences for energy at Paris Cergy University. For my master thesis,…

  • floating windfarm anchor pile

    Hello, Please, i'm BELOUAD Rabah, student in M2 Geosciences of energy at Paris Cergy University. I'd like use Plaxis to design the anchor pile of floating windfarm for my master thesis but i didn't use it before, if someone could help me in this…

  • Hardening Soil Model Parameters

    Dear All I have oedometer test data providing einit, Cc, Cs and also Multistage CIU triaxial data from which I have obtained c' phi'. I am utilising the hardening soil model for settlement estimates of foundation loading. My question is, do I need…

  • Soil displacements relative to a particular location

    Hello, I'm modelling a spudcan (offshore foundation) penetration problem, using the updated mesh type calculation. I want to extract the soil displacement relative to a particular location (i.e. x=0.25D, 0.5D, 1D, etc..). What I'm obtaining right…

  • Cylinder foundation

    Hello everyone, I would like to ask what is the more effective way to model a continuous cylinder foundation which is increasing in diameter from the top to the bottom. As an example we want to set the diameter at the top equal to 10 m whereas at…

  • Effect of pile driving on the concrete Building

    1- Is there a script for this video? 2- We define beams and columns through Beam in the structure section and then we can assign a concrete material to the beam. How we can enter the effect of reinforcement in the beam for our model? Because concrete…

  • How to model the foundation of the structure with Plaxis 3d (v2013) software?

    I have a simulation performed by plaxis 2013 , which collapses and it does not converge properly. I would appreciate it if someone could give me an idea of the problem. This is a model of the wind turbine foundation where I’ve used the Mohr-Coloumb constitutive…
