Model tests were performed to investigate the lateral earth pressure acting on the retaining structure adjacent to both natural ground (NG) and composite foundation (CFRLP), which were supported with rigid-flexible and long-short piles. Two testing procedures, namely, applying a load to the foundation and rotating the retaining structure along its toe, were considered. The results indicate that the additional lateral earth pressure acting on the retaining structure adjacent to the CFRLP is less than that of the NG in the depth of the reinforcement area strengthened by flexible piles. Compared with NG, the CFRLP yielded a smaller normalized height of application of the lateral earth pressure, suggesting that the CFRLP blocked the horizontal diffusion of the load and had a strong ability to transfer the surcharge load to the deep soil. When rotating the retaining structure, the lateral earth pressure acting on the upper part of the retaining structure experienced limited reduction once the displacement at the top of the retaining structure was greater than 8 mm, whereas the pressure acting on the lower part of the retaining structure continued to decrease with increasing displacement. In addition, a three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) was used to investigate the influence of the pile parameter and the wall-soil friction angle on the additional lateral earth pressure.

As there are more and more high-rise buildings in the big cities, some new foundation pits are usually near old high-rise construction. In this case, foundation pit excavation is an engineering problem which needs to be solved urgently. This paper aims at the problem where the new foundation pit is closing to a high-rise building with a cement fly-ash grave (CFG) composite foundation, though cantilever retaining pile model test, simulate the excavate process, and make a testing system to measure datum in order to research on the characteristics of the earth pressure.

Based on an Engineering Example which was supported by the stepped soil-nail wall, a numerical analysis model was established by FLAC3D,and the process of the excavation and supporting was simulated, and the numerical results of the soil nails internal force and foundation pit deformation were obtained. The simulated result was consistent with the measured results. It shows that the method of FLAC3D numerical analysis can be used to the numerical analysis of foundation pit excavation and supporting, and it will provide the basis for the design and construction of practice project.

Bamboo is highly renewable and biodegradable with good short-term strength, which meets the requirement for temporal support structures in shallow foundation pits. Based on this, we conducted a laboratory model test on the dentate bamboo micropile support structure combined with environmentally friendly building materials and new type of piles, to explore the stress characteristics, stress change regularity, and the support effect of the system in soft soil foundation pits. The results show that the earth pressure on the pile sides above the excavation surface gradually decreases with an increase in the excavation depth. The bending deformation of the bamboo pile was also significant. The results also show that the earth pressure and the pile strain below the excavation surface change slightly during the excavation process. When the short sides of the foundation pit were loaded, the highest strain was recorded in the piles 4 and 11. A maximum strain of 358.93 με was recorded, and the maximum displacement of the pile in the top part was obtained to be only 2.14 mm. The most subsidence of dentate pile obtained is only 1.88 mm, whereas that of the single-row pile is 2.35 mm. Compared to the traditional single-row pile, the dentate piles can effectively reduce the horizontal deformation as well as the surface subsidence effectively. They can also support more external lateral load, and hence maintain the foundation stability and give better support. The results provide a theoretical basis for ecological bamboo support technology and have great value to be promoted.

Double-row piles retaining structure has been widely used in the project now, but the stress mechanism of double-row pile is more complex; Its internal force and deformation are affected by many factors. Understanding and mastering its effects has an important significance for the design and the optimization of double-row pile supporting structure. According to the comparison of the measured data and theoretical calculation about original support scheme and optimized support plan and combined with the soil test data, this paper takes the Jinan Cultural Arts Center(Theatre) stage bin foundation pit as an example to analyse the main effects of optimization design about double-pile supporting structure. The results show that soil shear strength, soil arch effect, influence of CFG composite foundation, pile-beam synergy effect and space effect of foundation pit play an important role for optimization design about double-pile supporting structure.
