Parametric Study of Twin Tunneling Effects on Piled Foundations in Stiff Clay: 3D Finite-Element Approach
Due to urbanization, development of society, and growth of population, there are new demands for tunneling technique to facilitate the public transport as well as high-rise buildings to accommodate an increasing population. Piled foundations are commonly preferred for the construction of high-rise buildings. It is, therefore, unavoidable that tunnels must be constructed near extant buildings resting on piled foundations. Inevitable movement of the ground due to stress changes induced by a tunnel can induce additional settlement and reduce the load-carrying capacity of nearby pile foundation systems. This numerical parametric study investigates the responses of two-by-two piled raft to twin side-by-side tunnels either near the mid-depth of the pile shaft or adjacent to or below the pile toe in stiff clay. In addition, it investigates the effects of different group configurations of the piled raft and elevated pile group. The ground in all the finite-element analyses was modeled using the hypoplasticity (clay) model because of its ability to capture degradation of soil stiffness at a small-strain level. Twin tunneling below the pile and near the middepth of the pile shaft caused the largest and smallest settlement of the piled raft, respectively. Unlike induced piled raft settlement, the most significant transverse tilting of the raft is induced after the advancement of the first tunnel. After the twin tunneling near the pile shaft was completed, the raft was separated from the ground, and a portion of the working load carried by the raft was transferred to the piles. The computed results have revealed that the induced settlement of the elevated pile group was significantly larger than that of the piled raft. A significant effect number of piles in the group was found on the piled raft responses to tunneling.
