摘要
The magnitude of wall displacement and the ground settlement profile during excavation are vital in assessing potential damage to neighbouring structures and buried services. A new device for the centrifuge model testing on whole process of excavation was developed. The device was confirmed to be effective in simulating the excavation of foundation pits at the 85-g level by a series of small-scale centrifuge model tests. For unstrutted excavation, the movement of the retaining wall was similar to rotating about a fixed point near the wall toe and the maximum incremental cantilever wall deflection was at the wall crest. The ground settlement curve is spandrel and the maximum settlement occurs near the retaining wall. For the strutted excavation, the movement of the retaining wall was concave settlement trough, and maximum deformation point of the retaining wall was located near the excavation face. The ground settlement curve is concave one, and the maximum ground settlement usually occurs at the same distance from the retaining wall. © 2023 Editorial Office of China Civil Engineering Journal.
