Comparative analysis of calculations of strip foundation, taking into account the influence of adjoined building with different soil models

Abstract

The necessity to take into account the properties of soil foundations, which depend not only on the conditions of their natural occurrence, but also on the stress state, led researchers to create a large number of different soil models. This article provides is to clarify the patterns and features of the three-dimensional interaction of strip foundations with the soil base in conditions of dense urban development with the use of various design soil models and comparison with field observations. Three soil models (the Mohr-Coulomb model, the Hardening-Soil model, model of the Klepikov stiffness coefficient) are considered. The calculation stages displayed a true picture of the construction of a new building (dismantling of the floor of an existing building, excavation, etc.). As a result of numerical experiments with a use of Plaxis and methods for calculating structures on a deformable base was received values settlement of strip foundations in applying three soil models. The difference of the calculated values of strip foundation settlement is defined in percentage. The geodesic monitoring confirms the validity of the research.
