Numerical simulation in foundation due to settlement problem

This study describes a study on the geotechnical behavior of two different type of footing using finite element code, PLAXIS 2D. In determining the suitable of footing to loadings, design criteria should function according to the soil and types of structures erected on it. Higher loading will requir...
