When performing safety analysis on Plaxis the following behavior is happening:
The SRF reaches a peak and then drop. After that, there is a continuous raising until the line stabilize. This indicates an error in the model or is a possible outcome?

Hello i want to learn how to use physical modeler (Structural wizard for water tanks) now i would like to know how does staad compute loads after filling all required parameters.Is there any verified manual showing that part of load computation
Joseph Lucas Magare in reply to Modestas
Thank you Modestas what about the values of saturated soil, which formula is used to obtain that pressure value?
Joseph Lucas Magare in reply to Modestas
Thank you, maybe this can be easy for me now, because i don't know how to use script.
How can I link Task 3 so that it starts at the same time as Task 1, but also for the end date of Task 3 to be linked with the end date of Task 2.
I want the duration to be updated automatically when rescheduling.
Many thanks.

Hello Simon,
You can make Task 3 a Long Hammock type with links to other Tasks as shown below -
Hi, I'm trying to automatically read out simulation results from Plaxis. For this I have oriented myself to the following how-to (LINK). However, the evaluation takes a very long time, because each step is queried individually. If the whole process...

Dear Stefanos,
I have the same issue. I'd like to know if, after this time, exists a quickly way to save the Reached values step by step. The iterative way is not an option, it takes an hour to save a just 1000-elements array!
Regards
Nazhmiddin Nasyrlayev in reply to Stefanos Papavasileiou
Hi Stefanos,
Is there an update on this? I have automized my workflow to run an optimization study, which needs to run many simulations. Alas, this .Reached method is taking almost the same time as an actual simulation run.
Thank you,

Would you be able to attach the folder (zipped) where this model was saved before the crash?

Hello Rachel,
Try setting the status of the PSV to Inactive and compute the model. That would give you an idea of the pressure you are seeing around there to make certain that the data you are entering makes sense for the system. Also, check the orientation...

Hi Ian,
I will do, though probably a weekend task.
But I think you are on to something. All worksets are loaded on startup, as evidenced by the fact you cannot update a workset config, and just reselect it to reload it as you did in V8.
The other issue...

You are correct, the DGNLIBS are loaded for each file open. You can actually see this in the dialog that pops up. V8i didn't do this!!!

EN1993-1-3 is not implemented in STAAD.Pro, so the design of cold formed sections is not supported in STAAD.Pro as per Eurocode. An idea to implement this code into STAAD.Pro is already logged in our IDEAS porta: Cold formed Member design to EN 1993-1...
