In this tutorial we will analyze a wooden plank foundation system which considers drainage
condition with construction stages. After modeling two dimensional elements, we will
complete a three dimensional model by extrusion process. The construction stage analysis
will be performed with proper boundary conditions, and the output results will be analyzed.
