Instability due to excessive settlement in mining structures, such as leach pads, represents one of the challenges for large mining projects in Peru, as it can damage the structural integrity and generate accidents that compromise the safety of workers and the environment. In response to this concern, it is important to implement new methodologies to find the correct stability performed in feasibility studies, as was done for PAD 3 of the Shahuindo mining unit. For this reason, it was proposed to use the SIGMA/W software, which implements the FEM finite element method, applying in the parameters the dynamic properties of the foundation soil which were calculated by means of the MASW 1D (Multichannel Analysis of Surface Wave) test. The proposed methodology includes the dynamic characterization of the soil through the MASW 1D test, which shows the shear waves Vs m/s at different depths; and through correlations, geotechnical parameters such as the modulus of elasticity at depth are obtained. These are incorporated into the constitutive model to more accurately represent soil behavior with an E (Kpa) vs. (KPa) curve. This characterization contributes to improving the accuracy of settlement estimation, optimizing the structural design of the foundation. The analysis focuses on simulating the permanent loads on the Pad and evaluating the resulting settlements, considering the stiffness calculated with the MASW 1D results and the vertical effective stress (). This work provides an integrated methodology that combines geophysical testing and advanced numerical modeling, providing a reliable tool for the analysis of settlements in foundation soils in mining infrastructure projects. The results showed settlements of Pad up to 0.32 cm, which are permissible for this type of structure.
