Abstract
This article presents the observed and simulated lateral movements and strut forces induced in deep cement mixing walls under deep excavation using top-down construction techniques in soft Bangkok clay. The walls are supported laterally by permanent concrete slabs and temporary struts. A three-dimensional numerical model is first calibrated with observed data from a case study. Then, a parametric study is performed to compare this construction method with the bottom-up method and investigate the influence of the DCM wall thickness on lateral movements and strut forces of the wall. ฉ 2017 Elsevier Ltd
