In recent years, building density in the city is increasing as the promoting of urban modernization. Deep foundation pit excavation and bracing is a topic in geotechnical engineering, including strength and stabilization of soil mechanics, and transmutation and sedimentation of deep foundation, and common effect between soil and shoring structure. The paper based on the design and fabrication of indoor model test device. This paper respectively explored the destroy mechanism of cantilever and anchored sheet pile support structure on the soil pressure under the different loads, and comprehensively carried through cantilever and anchored sheet pile support test under four-grades excavation depth and four-grades load combination, and specially researched the transformation of soil pressure. At the same time, the piles spacing changed among 3cm, 4cm and 5cm. Theoretical results showed that the active earth pressure increased with the increase of load and excavation depth. Model test results showed that the earth pressure behind the piles increased with the increase of excavation depth and the load. The biggest earth pressure was 19.38kPa when loading 40kPa. The changing curves of soil pressure were similar when piles spacing was 3cm and 4cm. Earth pressure after the piles was negative when piles spacing exceeded 4cm, which illustrated that active earth pressure had changed into passive soil pressure.

In order to study the earth pressure and the deformation behavior of the double-row piles in foundation excavation, a large-scale physical model test was introduced to simulate deformation of double-row piles in foundation excavation based on the principle of similarity theory in this paper. Represented by the deep foundation pit engineering of Changchun, the strain and the displacement of the double-row piles and the earth pressure are calculated by the above-mentioned physical model test. Then a numerical simulation has been carried out to validate practicability of the physical model test. The results show that the strain and the displacement of the front-row piles are larger than the back-row piles. The earth pressure of the front-row piles appears to be “right convex,” correcting the specification of the earth pressure and putting forward the coefficient of β. The results in this paper may provide constructive reference for practical engineering.

The Impact

The demand for buildings constructed along subway lines is increasing, and analysis of the impact of foundation excavation and building construction on adjacent tunnels is critical. This study investigated the variation law of tunnel deformation and surrounding earth pressure on an existing tunnel resulting from deep foundation excavation and the load of buildings. Four groups of scale model tests and corresponding numerical simulation calculations were conducted in four different modes: over unloading-loading, shallow-side unloading-loading, middle-side unloading-loading, and deep-side unloading-loading, which are according to the different relative position of the foundation pit and the tunnel. The results show that when the tunnel stretches across different areas, corresponding deformation occurs owing to the different mechanical mechanisms during excavation and loading. The results can provide evidence for the further study on the impact of adjacent construction process on the tunnels.

Abstract At present, in deep foundation pit engineering, on the one hand, practice is ahead of theory, and on the other hand, theory can not correctly reflect the actual construction process and environmental effects. In order to further study the distribution and change law of earth pressure and internal force of pile body in deep foundation pit pile-anchor supporting system, field monitoring test of earth pressure and pile body reinforcement stress was carried out. The monitoring results show that before excavation, the distribution of earth pressure has a great relationship with the layering of the soil, and it is distributed in sections along the depth. Compared with the theoretical static earth pressure, the measured data of the upper depth is relatively small; after excavation, the overall earth pressure is distributed along the depth in a “z” shape under the non-limiting state. As the excavation progresses, the magnitude of the reduction of the earth pressure varies from place to place, and the magnitude of the decrease of the soil with better properties is not large; after the excavation, the stress and earth pressure of the pile reinforcement correspond to each other, and the distribution is also nonlinear. The existence of anchor tension has an obvious effect on improving the internal force of the pile. The selected earth pressure calculation methods have some discrepancies in the calculation of the earth pressure value of the project, and they need to be further improved. The research in this paper can provide reference and reference for the calculation of earth pressure and support design of pile-anchor supported foundation pit.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the distribution of active earth pressure in retaining walls with narrow cohesion less backfill considering arching effects. Design/methodology/approach To this end, the approach of principal stresses rotation was used to consider the arching effects. Findings According to the presented formulation, the active soil pressure distribution is nonlinear with zero value at the wall base. The proposed formulation implies that by increasing the frictional forces at both sides of the backfill, the arching effect is increased and so, the lateral earth pressure on the retaining wall is decreased. Also, by narrowing the backfill space, the lateral earth pressure is extremely decreased. Originality/value A comprehensive analytical solution for the active earth pressure of narrow backfills is presented, such that the effects of the surcharge and the characteristics of the stable back surface are considered. The magnitude and height of the application of lateral active force are also derived.

A deep foundation pit in a station of the Hangzhou subway is adjacent to new high-rise residential buildings on the north side and to the Evergrande foundation pit being excavated on the south side. This work considers the excavation of the foundation pit in the subway station as the research subject, focuses on the difference of the deformation and Earth pressure between the north side and the south side of the foundation pit under these special working conditions through the analysis of the measured data, and compares it with an ordinary foundation pit. Analyzing the measured data reveals that the horizontal displacement of the retaining wall and the ground settlement are far larger on the north side than on the south side, and both often exceed the deformation alarm value; the deformation of the ordinary foundation pit is between the deformation of the overloaded (north) side and that of the unloaded (south) side of the foundation pit. Moreover, the maximum rate of the horizontal creep of the soil and the maximum rate of the creep caused by the ground settlement on the north side of the foundation pit are larger than those on the south side of the foundation pit; the maximum rate of the horizontal creep of the ordinary foundation pit is between the two. The active Earth pressure on the pit wall on the north side is higher than that on the south side of the foundation pit, and because of the surrounding unloading, passive Earth pressure is generated at the bottom of the pit wall on the south side of the foundation pit, which causes it to shift to the outside of the foundation pit. The settlement of the surrounding high-rise buildings and the settlement of the columns are all within the range of the alarm values; also, the buildings settle evenly. Due to the excavation and unloading on the south side of the foundation pit, the uplift of the columns is not considerable.
