Case Study: Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring of Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement Project
The Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement (AWV) project in Seattle includes a 1.7 mile bored tunnel, excavated by the world’s largest EPB TBM at the time it was built in 2012. The TBM finished its journey in April 2017, which was highly successful in ground settlement control, supported by a comprehensive geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring program. This case study describes conventional and state-of-the-art monitoring technologies, the data acquisition and transmission system, as well as the integrated data management platform that were implemented in the project. The monitoring baseline and frequency are also discussed, providing guidelines to similar projects. In the end of the case study, new advancements in tunnel instrumentation and monitoring are also introduced.
