dear friends,
i hope you can help me in my problem about pile raft model i present both non linear solution for concrete and soil but i use solid 65 for concrete and solid 45 for soil and for material properties for concrete i don't have the coefficients i mean open shear transfer,closed shear transfer,uniaxil cracking stress, uniaxil crushing stress by the way am using ansys 11 sp1 and using si units i mean kN and m and the raft is on soil and bonded to piles but am not using contacts elements is it correct or not if not how to make contact element between raft and soil and pile and soil .
.
thanks for every thing
asa
