Figure 11.
The graph depicts the relationship between downward movement measured in millimetres and applied load measured in MegaNewtons (MN). The vertical axis represents movement, ranging from zero to negative one hundred millimetres, while the horizontal axis displays the applied load, ranging from zero to seventy MegaNewtons. Red circles indicate the actual measured downward movement values, whereas a solid black line illustrates the assessed downward movement using PLAXIS 2D. The layout clearly labels both axes and includes a legend that differentiates between the measured values and assessed data. The graph illustrates a general decrease in movement as the applied load increases.Plots of downward movement versus applied load (lower pile)
Note: This figure presents comparisons between the measured load–settlement plots and the design estimates using Finite Element Software PLAXIS for the lower section of pile
