Abstract

Abstract: The paper discusses deformation of over consolidated soils in Hardening Soil Model in terms of their initial stress state. When carrying out numerical analysis in Plaxis, it has been stated that Hardening Soil Model "remembers" the history of previous loadings. In forming the initial stress state of over consolidated soils with the pre-overburden pressure POP, there occurs the more reliable description of the soil deformation process than with the over consolidation ratio OCR. These findings are valid for odometer conditions and for real geotechnical calculations.
