3-D analysis of one-strut failure in braced excavation

In this project both 2D and 3D finite element analysis, using PLAXIS 2D and 3D, were carried out for excavations in soft clay. For the 3D analysis, the length of excavation was slightly more than four times the excavation width. Walls with various bending stiffness were considered. The strut failure...
