Numerical Analysis of Square and Circular Skirted Footings Placed on Sand using PLAXIS 3D Software

Gaurav Juneja; Ravi Kumar Sharma

Volume 13, Issue 4 , October 2022, , Pages 1049-1066

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2022.12458.2261

Abstract
  This paper presents the numerical analysis of square and circular skirted footings placed on different sands using the PLAXIS 3D software. The numerical analysis is done using the Mohr-coulomb (M-C) yield criteria. The size of the footings is considered as 100 mm for both the square and circular footings. ...  Read More
