Modelling Struts with node-to-node or fixed end anchor
Dear all,
I wonder which structural element is more proper to model the strut behavior in symmetrical and unsymmetrical excavations. Firstly I created a deep excavation model to compare the strut forces, which you can see below. For the first analysis…
(For Deep Excavation) How or what form should i build the diagonal strut (/knee strut) in ELS
Hi, I am building the ELS model in Plaxis 3D.
I am wondering what form (beam, node to node anchor) should I apply for the strut, which required to preloading. (I think it should be node-node due to prestressing)
But there are 2 diagonal struts connected…
