plate properties (PLAXIS 2d vs PLAXIS 3D)
Hello,
I have a question about the plate properties in PLAXIS. In 2D, there is a specific input as "unit weight (w)" and in 3D, there is another specific unit weight as " unit weight (gamma)". I know how to get the unit weight for PLAXIS 3D but for…
Error code:111 in modelling of a NATM Tunnel in PLAXIS 3D
Dear Soilvision Forum,
I'm currently working on my diploma thesis and I'm modelling compensation grouting above a NATM tunnel. The tunnel is only a part of the thesis to cause settlements for the compensation grouting.
After a preheaving phase the…

Different output results
I have a problem with "Plaxis 3D output V20" Line Cross Section results
as you can see in the picture attached, the Maximum effective stress differs from either table or graph, and there is a huge gap between them.
I'm so confused right now and I…
Project fails at an early phase after modification
Hello,
I am having issues with my PLAXIS 3D project of a bridge, the original file runs with no issues. However, I have modified the height of the bearing by increasing the bearing height (pink volume) and reducing the height of the pier, without adjusting…
Hardening Soil model equation for elastic axial strain
Hello,
while writing my master thesis I was wondering about the equation [145] of the Material Models Manual of PLAXIS, which says that the sum of the axial strain follows by the negative elastic axial strain minus the plastic axial strain given in…
Cross section curves axis scaling
Hello everyone
In the Cross Section Curve there is an option in the settings to change the axis scaling manually. When I change the scaling to a lower number as the automatically filled in number, the change works well. But I want to change the scaling…
Catch Points to draw line
How can I draw a line between two points in the already existing model in Plaxis 3D without having to enter the coordinates of the end-points? Is there a possibility to "catch" the already existing points to draw the line or implenent a pointload a lot…
How can I model a hinge between two beams?
I want to model hinges at the end of a beam which is connected to several other beams. How can I do that in Plaxis 3D?
Thanks for your help!
