| Abstract: | With the increase of the high-rise buildings, land subsidence induced by human activities becomes a major problem. Land subsidence
occurs slowly, but the accumulation results in the cracks in the road, the damage to the pipelines and in the tilting or the
cracking of the buildings. With the withdrawal of groundwater controlled reasonably, the engineering-environmental effect
of the dense high-rise building group comes to be the main cause of land subsidence. Based on the high-rise building group
in the soft soil area in Shanghai, the mechanism of land subsidence is studied in this paper by the centrifuge model tests.
The central area of the building group has larger subsidence and the subsidence superimposition effect is obvious. It can
exceed the allowance and cause land subsidence hazard. The land subsidence affected by the different building distances is
also studied. For smaller building distances, the subsidence superimposition effect is more obvious. The larger excess pore
water pressure in the pile-base supporting layer of the central area shows that the stress superimposition effect is larger.
The earth pressure under the buildings fluctuates by the disturbance of the pile tips. |
