   Hi Yong, I’ve tried to use elastic perfectly plastic soil model in “QzPile” to simulate a concrete pile 48 m long, diameter 0.80 m embedded in sand (shear angle 27°, K=0.55) till the depth of 41 m then “rock” elastic perfectly plastic. For the rock I used the following parameters; skin stiff. 340000 kN/m3, end bear.stiff. 830000 kN/m3, ultimate skin fric. 400 kPa, ultimate end bear. 1800 kPa. The program give me strange results in the “Ult-fric depth” graph: Ultimate skin friction and Total , Shaft and Toe values seems moltiplied for 1000. Thanks in advance, Andreas.

      Hi Khaldoun, I have sent you a few QzPile example files. You can open and run these files by click F5. You can also run the default example to familiarize yourself with the program. Please let me know if you need any help.
