In urban environment, most buildings are adjacent to each other. High rise buildings need deep excavation. The excavation will cause large soil movement and may cause damage to the adjacent building. For this reason, this research studies the effect of nearby excavation on existing pile group and piles supporting excavation numerically. This research investigates the behavior of piles supporting excavation ... Read more

One of the main design constraints is to prevent damages to adjacent buildings,especially during excavation for basement construction. As excavation proceeds, the surrounding soils will move toward the excavation and their movement will induce bending moments and deflections in the existing pile groups. The existing pile response due to the excavation-induced lateral soil movements had been studied previously by using ... Read more

ABSTRACT: In urban environment, excavation adjacent to existing buildings is common. Supporting excavation is important to prevent damaging of the adjacent buildings. There are many factors affecting the selection of the supporting system. Some of them are soil behavior, type of foundation, foundation level of the adjacent buildings, and the budget of the project under construction. In order to reduce ... Read more

IN COUNTRY WITH HIGH POPULATION INTENSITY, THERE IS NO DISTANCE BETWEEN BUILDINGS. NEW BUILDINGS NEED EXCAVATION. AS EXCAVATION PROCEEDS, THE SURROUNDING SOILS WILL MOVE TOWARD THE EXCAVATION AND THAT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE OF ADJACENT BUILDINGS. THE PRESENT STUDY MAINLY AIMS TO PROVIDE REMARKS FOR THE DESIGN OF EXCAVATION FOR SANDY AND CLAYEY SOILS IN ORDER TO PREVENT DAMAGE OF ADJACENT ... Read more
