Does anyone have any references on modelling concrete walls directly on bedrock in FEA software?

We have an upcoming project where all the walls will be cast directly on cleared bedrock, and are trying to find a suitable spring stiffness on the bottom of the walls. The main purpose is to controll cracking and creep/shrinkage forces for reinforcment design.
