Settlement of 16-Story Office Tower on Raft Foundation Situated on Piedmont Residuum
A large mat foundation was constructed in Tysons Corner, Virginia, to support a bank building resting on residual silts of the Appalachian Piedmont geologic province. The subsurface conditions were evaluated in the vicinity using borings and DMT-SPT relationships, primarily for calculating settlements to assess the viability of the foundation system. A survey system was established prior to construction and deformations were monitored over a one-year period. Measured settlements were on the order of 38 to 76 mm (1.5 to 3.0 in) and comparable to those calculated using a simple elastic continuum solution that accounts for foundation size, finite layer thickness, soil modulus variation with depth (Gibson vs. homogeneous), foundation rigidity, and embedment effects.
