Abstract
We investigate a deep foundation pit for urban substation construction in Chengdu, China. The pit was excavated in a sandy gravel layer and has a depth of 24.6 m. Detailed field surveys and monitoring were carried out to investigate the deformation characteristics of the foundation pit and its supporting structure related to excavation. Flac3D software was used to analyze the influence of pile anchor design parameters, including pile diameters, pile spacing, anchor cable prestress, anchor angle, and the number of rows of anchor cables, on deformation of the deep foundation pit. The results showed the pile diameter was the most critical influencing factor for pile deformation. The influences of anchor cable prestress and anchor angle on the horizontal displacement of the pile were inferior to the influence of the pile diameter and the number of anchor cable rows. The results reported in this paper provide guidance for the optimal design of foundation pits in settings with similar geological conditions.
