Settlements analysis of PVD installation in soft soil using plaxis 3D

Recent years, several of construction projects are built on soft soil. In accordance with the proprieties of soft soil, the construction on soft soil always leads to settlements. Vertical drain such as prefabricate vertical drain (PVD) has been successfully applied in many projects as soft soil grou...
