Force Chain Effect of Deep Foundation Pit Supported by Soldier Piles in the Sand-Gravel Layer

Soldier pile support is an important tool for supporting deep foundation pits in the sand-gravel layer. However, since the sand-gravel layer itself is an aggregate of particles, its noncontinuity will cause extremely complex changes in the properties of the surrounding soils during pile supporting,...

description Soldier pile support is an important tool for supporting deep foundation pits in the sand-gravel layer.
