In dewatered excavation with high water table, why do I see external water loads on excavation side? How to prevent external water loads?
I have a dewatered tied-back caisson wall excavation with a high water table in PLAXIS 2D. Throughout excavation stages I set soil clusters to dry. ymin boundary is open, all others are closed. Why are external water loads showing up in output? How to…
Water Condition for multi-layer excavation in Plaxis 3D
Dear All,
I am a newbie of Plaxis. I would like to ask about water condition "Global", "Dry", "Head" & "Interpolate" in 3D
When the model with multi-layer excavation 1 by 1, I would like to ask whether my logic in Plaxis correct or not:
Stage…
(For Deep Excavation) What is assumption between Waling & Sheet Pile Wall in Plaxis 3D?
Dear All,
What is the assumption for Waling & Sheet Pile Wall (retaining structure wall) 's relationship in Plaxis 3D?
Are they assumed totally rigid and fixed together?
Regards,
William
