I am modeling a foundation on rock and wish to extract the resulting bearing pressures (Sigma yy) at the base of the footing. Should I plot draw the line cross-section directly under the plate element or at half footing thickness away from it (i.e. at...
The foundation is modeled as a plate element having the following properties:
EA = 59450820.01 kN/m EI = 19816940 kNm2/m w = 26 kN/m/m (considering a unit weight of 24 kN/m3 for the underlying rock and a footing thickness of 2m)
Please note that the…
Speed Up PLAXIS Cross Section Curve Export
Hi,
I am currently working on a dynamic modelling project in PLAXIS where we are obtaining the lateral earth pressures on a gravity retaining wall.
The retaining wall is modelled as a linear elastic material.
To export the results, I have preselected…
