Plaxis can be pretty complicated. Your best bet is to either find someone to help you out in person or take one of their courses.

There are plaxis manual and tutorials that do a step by step run through of the assessment of various problems, footing bearing capacity, slope stability, retaining walls, tunnels etc. They will give you an indication of how to set up the model etc.
However all you will be doing is punching in numbers that any trained monkey can do. To really understand and learn Plaxis you have to be applying it to real world problems and have an experienced plaxis user available to you for mentoring.
I have done a little bit of Plaxis modelling however I am self thought and would never consider applying what i know to a real world problem.
Also - I dont know why but Plaxis tutorial videos are notoriously hard to find!
Good luck and if you do manage to find useful information, please share it here!
