Settlement Calculation on High-Rise Buildings: Theory and Application
Settlement calculation is one of the three major issues in foundation
engineering and it has not yet been resolved completely. Especially settlement
calculation of super high-rise buildings still remains the most difficult problem
for engineers. Due to lack of practical settlement data, there is few systematic
research result and rarer monograph to investigate this special problem.
This book summarizes the author’s three decades of experiences and
research results on deep foundation in design and construction of high-rise
buildings. It presents a full coverage of settlement calculation issues theoretically
with case studies, according to the characteristics and requirements of super
high-rise buildings. It also brings forward the author’s several original research
results, which form a series of settlement calculation theory and application on
high-rise buildings.
The book contributes to the problems of the constitutive model of soft soil,
analysis of ground stress and deformation, the pile group effects and the behavior
of super-long piles, settlement calculation methods in China and in the world.
The book focuses on settlement calculation of deep foundation of super
high-rise buildings and its case studies. Based on the new Code for Design of
Building Foundation in China and practical settlement data collected from more
than 20 high-rise buildings, it for the first time deals with the effects of retaining
structure in deep excavation on the settlement of the three kinds of deep
foundations of high-rise buildings, i.e., box (raft) foundation, box (raft)
foundation on floating piles, box (raft) foundation on end bearing piles. The
calculation methods for the settlement of these foundations are proposed. A new
design method for space-varying rigidity pile group with equal settlement has
been invented and applied to high-rise buildings, based on the author’s research
results on the advantages of super-long piles on settlement control and that of
short pile and middle length piles on bearing capacity. The method brings a new
insight in the design theory of pile foundation. Other innovative studies are also
covered in this book including the layered summation method for oblique stepped
strata, and the integrated coefficient method of box foundation on sandy.
The book is technical reference including technical experiences of typical
practical projects, combining theoretical research with practical application, and
design with construction.
