Bentley Coffee Corner: Geotechnical Analysis - PLAXIS for Rock Excavations: The Plastic Radius and Support System Design - Part II

This webinar is the second in a two-part series, focusing on understanding the plastic radius or the extent of plastic deformation around an excavation, and designing appropriate support systems, which are essential for successful project outcomes. 

Due to the complex behavior of rock masses under stress, rock excavation projects present stability and safety challenges. PLAXIS provides rock engineers with the tools to assess the 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.
