In this MIDAS Intro Session, our MIDAS engineer introduced the modeling of Soil-structure interaction (SSI) which is a physical phenomenon in which the structure behaves in connection with the soil when an external load is applied to the structure. SSI is needed for bridges and buildings to improve the accuracy of the structural analysis results and for cost-effective design. Two exactly same structures can have different load distributions if they are constructed in different soils.
