  • Embedded beam in Tension

    Hello, this regarding the true input of the modulus of elasticity "E" for an embedded beam element, either 2D or 3D. When using this feature for modelling a concrete structure (reinforced concrete piles, grouted nail...), it seems that there are doubts…
  • Varying Soil Parameters with respect to time for Pile foundation

    Hello, Is it possible to create a model and vary the soil parameters with respect to time. I want to create a shallow pile foundation model and vary the soil parameters with respect to time to simulate wet-dry cycles. The aim is to capture the varying…
  • Is it possible to model open ended steel sigma "Σ" sections or PFC sections pile in Plaxis 3D

    Hi All, Is it possible to model open ended steel sigma "Σ" pile sections or PFC sections in Plaxis 3D?
  • Piled raft foundation, load carried by piles

    Hi everyone, Is there a shortcut to see the total load carried by the piles in a piled raft foundation on Plaxis 3D? Thanks,
  • How to model debonding of Piles?

    Hello, This is a very basic question pertaining to Debonding of Piles. Type of Pile: RC Bored Pile Size of Pile: 300mm Circular Total Embedment Length: 42m Total debonded length: First 30m Rest of the length 12m is not debonded. What is…
  • 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…
  • Plaxis 2D piles seems to cross in Oxy plan

    Hi everyone, I'm starting to use plaxis 2D and try to model a berth, using embedded beams. Piles of a berth are both straight and inclined. In 3D they are definitely not gonna cross each other but in 2d modeling they seems to have intersections. Is this…

  • PLAXIS3D - modelling of pile sleeves

    Hi all, PLAXIS3D question: I am wanting to model several piles embedded in the ground, with the upper portion of the pile having an outer sleeve (steel casing with annulus being a void) around it so that it is not loaded by soil pushing on it laterally…
  • 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.
