Bentley Coffee Corner: Geotechnical Analysis (AM) (PM) - PLAXIS for Rock Excavations: A Focus on Plastic Radius and Support System Design - Part I
- Jun, 11, 2024 - Jun, 11, 2024
- Webinar Deep Excavations Rock Mass Characterization Rock Engineering
- English
- Authored by: Geoengineer.org
Due to the complex behaviour of rock masses under stress, rock excavation projects present stability and safety challenges. This webinar, being the first in a two-part series, focuses on understanding the plastic radius—the extent of plastic deformation around an excavation—and designing appropriate support systems, which are essential for successful project outcomes.
PLAXIS provides rock engineers with the tools to assess plastic radius and check the effectiveness of support systems. With PLAXIS, rock engineers can effectively simulate stresses caused by excavation, anticipate potential failure mechanisms, and refine support system configurations to guarantee the safety and stability of rock excavation projects.
Topics include:
- Assessing Plastic Radius
- Support System Effectiveness
- Practical Considerations
Bentley Coffee Corners are open to all Bentley users, free of charge. One learning unit is applied to each participant’s Bentley Transcript for self-reporting. To view prior sessions, watch the Recordings On-Demand.
