Description
- The present invention relates to a method for stabilizing deep civil excavations or earth slope instability in vicinity of existing civil objects.
- Development of urban regions reveals the need of excavation in vicinity to neighbor buildings more than ever. There are several methods to stabilizing excavations, such as anchorage, soil nailing, tie back, diaphragm wall, bored pile wall, braced pile wall, soldier beam and lagging and braced wall using wale struts.
- Construction of structures having large design loads, such as large buildings, sites where shallow foundations have not enough bearing capacity where portions of the building are below ground level, such as parking garages, or where there are site constraints, such as property lines, that reduce the area of the excavation site, generally requires deep excavations. Such excavations may therefore have to be properly shored, which may be temporary or permanent shoring.
- However, where the depth of excavations exceeds certain values; deflection tolerances are stringent due to proximate structures or utilities; or where the soil is soft or lacks cohesion, the soldier pile and lagging systems may need to be reinforced with tie-backs, struts, or internal bracing. Such reinforcement techniques, however, increase costs, are laborious, and are prone to interfere with proximate structures, such as where tieback anchors may cross property lines, roadways, and/or buried utilities, for example.
- Old traffic routes are for the most part in such a condition that they no longer have any significant stability reserves in their original geometry and in their current stress. The widening of lanes on slopes requires the protection of terrain jumps, as in incisions and embankments, unless a safe stand demolition is not possible. These terrain jumps are secured by retaining walls that are subject to earth pressure and must withstand this.
- Especially in steep and slip-prone terrain, there is a risk that instability of the traffic route to be widened or securing the existing buildings will be caused by the construction of the excavation pit or that landslides will be triggered which cause great damage to humans and the environment.
- In order to prevent this, costly safety measures, such as anchorages and others, often have to be taken.
- In the field of foundation engineering, due to changes in stress - strain relations in the soil, caused by deep excavations or soil condition changes in earth slopes, the initial static equilibrium changes, causing instability. The consequence of instability is the breakdown of all coupled natural and artificial space with material damage, which generally exceeds the value of the influenced space. Engineering response to these events is a stable retaining engineering structure. In accordance with the present invention, the retaining engineering structure is made based on the newly-predicted static equilibrium that is associated with the predetermined Fs stability factor.
