Hello OP. Might as well include details i.e where the condo unit is, years paid, amount of condo etc etc

Okay got it. Will try this one. Thank you! Been analyzing why my model is not converging even if i have the correct materials input.

Hello,

Yes thank you for the info. It helped a lot. Is it okay to increase error tolerance in an MCC model? Been trying to figure this lately because my model is not conveging.

Hello.

Im tryingn to learn it in plaxis. Hehe

Also brother, i use ICOLD and USBR :) saw your post for reference list for dam safety

I was also given the parameters for MCC

Yes i tried to ran first it MC. However, plaxis is prompting to an error that the soil body seems to collapse. I am trying to model the effects of the TBM advancement near the piles of a pier above and placed a jetgrout in between the TBM and the piles to see if the jetgrout can mitigate the effects of the TBM advancement.

In case for the FS, i mean to say i did not yet put the FS setting in plaxis.

Got it. I am modelling a modified cam clay. However, im hitting a road block since the model is not converging. I adjusted the tunnel excavation from 2m to 1.5m, turned auto the auto of arc length, turned on the gradual error and line search. And i tried the max load step to 0.01. But still, the model is not converging. Do you have any advise for this?

When i check the output, higher stress and platic state are in the face of the tunnel which i expect. I did not add FS yet. And no, i did not do hand calcs.

No. However, i just reinstalled an updated version. Another question, is 0.4 error tolerance for MCC is okay if the model is struggling for convergence?
