Safety Assessment of the Impacts of Foundation Pit Construction in Metro Station on Nearby Buildings

Abstract

During the construction of metro station, it is important to ensure the safety and normal use of nearby buildings. Focusing on a foundation pit project in Hefei Metro, this paper fully examines the foundation type, structural form, construction period and use state of a nearby building, and explores the relationship between foundation pit support plan, metro station construction plan, and the residual deformation capacity of the building foundation. Based on the design files and different construction plans of the station, the finite-difference method and deformation observation were adopted to analyze the foundation settlement and residual deformation of the nearby building during metro station construction. The support plan and construction plan were adjusted and improved continuously. Finally, it is planned to support the foundation pit with reinforced concrete retaining piles and four-layer steel supports, and excavate and reinforce the pit layer by layer. Under the final plans, deformation of the building foundation does not exceed its remaining deformation capacity. This research provides an effective construction plan for the metro station, and specifies the way to observe the foundation settlement of the nearby building. The research results provide a good reference for similar risk projects to conduct safety assessment and evaluation in the design and construction phases.

Calculation of Negative Frictional Resistance of Foundation Pile in Deep Fill Foundation

“…Resistance. Within the elastic range, the pile-bottom settlement basically has a linear relationship with pile-bottom resistance [11][12][13][14], and the pilebottom settlement increases with pile-top settlement. Since the current code [15] forbids excessive pile-top settlement, it is assumed that the pile-bottom bearing layer does not have plastic deformation.…”

Color Harmony Algorithm in Computer Aided Industrial Design

“…So the use of computer-aided design instead of manual design and drawing is an inevitable trend of development. The goal of computer design and drawing has greatly increased the demand for design software in the design department [4]. At the same time, it has also prompted engineers and technicians to work hard to develop convenient and applicable engineering design software to improve design efficiency and drawing quality.…”
