Mechanics in the Study on Deep Foundation Settlement of Super High-Rise Buildings

  • Chapter
Settlement Calculation on High-Rise Buildings

Abstract

The distribution of additional stress in subsoil, which is the basis of the study and computation of settlement, is vital to the research on deep foundation settlement of super high-rise buildings. The related mechanics includes: ➀ geostatic stress, ➁ additional stress caused by the load of buildings, ➂ contact pressure and contact problems of foundation base, ➃ the planar and spatial distribution of subsoil stress, ➄ the distribution of heterogeneous and anisotropic subsoil stress. Also included is the interactions among superstructure, subsoil and foundation are included, and scrutinized along with foundation type and engineering.
