Deformation Characteristics of a Long Deep Metro Excavation in Ningbo Soft Clay Using the HSS Model
Huishi Road Station on Ningbo Metro Line 6 was investigated to assess the deformation behaviour of a long, deep excavation in Ningbo soft clay. A three-dimensional PLAXIS model was developed to simulate staged excavation, diaphragm walls, reinforced-concrete struts, and bottom-soil improvement. Soil behaviour was repre...
