Our article published in the latest issue of Ground Engineering 10/2017. Great combination of cone-pressueremeter-testing (CPM) by FUGRO and advanced 3D Fem modelling by GEOLINK using hypoplastic constitutive equations to define coordinates for the climbing formwork of the new ship lift. Determination of material and state parameters truly based on back-calculation of field and lab tests. Monitoring data in the course of the obeseravational method confirm the realistic behaviour of the numerical model.
