Prediction of Response of Existing Building Piles to Adjacent Deep Excavation in Soft Clay

Table 5

Observed soil surface settlements at measuring points of Wulin Road excavation.

Measuring points	M26	M27	M28	M29	M30	M31
Distance from corner	84	70.3	66.1	45.9	30	27
Observed settlement value (mm)	8.2	16.2	14.1	11.9	9.17	9.07

The northwest corner of the excavation serves as the reference point. Positive distance values indicate that the measuring point is located at the south side of the corner of excavation. The specific layout of the measurement points is shown in Figure 13.
