Modeling the surface element and support system in deep excavation pits and investigating the deformation mechanism is an important issue. In this study, alternative solution methods for an anchored bored pile model are compared and discussed, and it is aimed to contribute to the studies to be carried out in the deep excavation area. A numerical analysis of retaining wall design is analyzed in the case of the Sivas cultural center building's deep excavation using GGU-Retain and Plaxis 2D software. Measured field data and simulated results are discussed. As a result, the bending moment and lateral deformation reach a maximum when the foundation pit is excavated to the bottom. It can be said that the lateral deformation value found with Plaxis 2D is within the allowable limits, closer to the field data, and provides sufficient quality. The research results will provide theoretical and practical experience for the optimal design and construction of similar deep excavation pits.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
