  • Shallow foundation - Soil springs

    Hello, how can we neglect the soil springs between the shallow foundation and the soil beneath it in case where the foundation is sitting on piles and the design requires that all loads are transferred exclusively to the piles? If it's by defining a dummy…
  • Embedded Beam Row Permeability & Skin Friction

    Hello, I have a couple of questions regarding the embedded beam row: How can I make an embedded beam row impermeable (i.e. so water has to flow around the base of the wall)? When specifying the skin friction in the input program I am assuming…
  • lateral soil slippage at the sides of the pile

    Hello, Can anyone please help as how can I model " lateral soil slippage at the sides of the pile" using embedded beam in PLAXIS. Thank you, Faisal
  • Lateral resistance of embedded beams

    Hello, I have a question regarding the applicability of lateral resistance in piles. In many research works, I have seen it mentioned that " PLAXIS does not account for lateral resistance/slide for embedded beams". But in the software, I see I can…
  • how to correctly provide pile head connection while modelling a piled raft foundation?

    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.
