Webinar 1: Efficient Deep Foundation Modelling with PLAXIS 3D
Deep foundations play a critical role in geotechnical engineering, where professionals regularly encounter complex challenges—ranging from aligning design with in-situ test data, to accurately modelling soil-structure interaction and interpreting heterogeneous subsurface conditions.
This webinar explores how PLAXIS empowers geotechnical, structural, and soil improvement specialists to overcome these challenges. PLAXIS offers powerful possibilities such as advanced calibration with in-situ data, robust modelling of soil-structure interaction, and modelling of soil improvement and deep foundation systems including piles and piled rafts.
Additionally, it provides advanced constitutive soil models, making it a comprehensive platform to design safe, efficient, and optimized foundation solutions.
Join our experts, Dr. Richard Witasse and Mohamed Hasan (Technical director in Keller), in a live webinar where they will demonstrate how to enhance your modelling capabilities using PLAXIS. Don´t miss the opportunity to unlock the potential of PLAXIS for deep foundations and elevate your geotechnical modelling skills.
What you will learn:
Soil behaviour calibration using zone load testing techniques 3D modelling of rigid inclusions with calibrated embedded beam elements Optimizing pile design through soil calibration based on BDSL and lateral pile test data Modelling full scale piled raft using calibrated embedded beam elements and checking group effect Assessing the impact of liquefied soils on axial and lateral pile capacity
