Abstract

Deep excavations are common in urban areas, nearby existing constructions. The support systems have the main function of preserve the stability and control soil displacements close to the excavation. Settlement control of nearby structures is an essential aspect during design and construction. Settlements prediction is usually made by empirical methods and in some cases also by numerical modeling. The paper presents a numerical modeling of a dry excavation by Plaxis program. The program allows the prediction of stress and deformation behavior of different geotechnical constructions using the Finite Element Method. The excavation has been modeled in five stages, in order to reproduce the construction phases. The numerical modeling was capable to reproduce satisfactorily the horizontal profile of the displacements of the diaphragm wall. In relation to settlements, the shape of the settlement profile was quite similar
