Deep Excavations and Support Systems

Course Overview

The course on "Deep Excavations and Support Systems" offers a comprehensive journey through the intricacies of underground construction and soil retention. Beginning with an exploration of tunnels, caverns, and shafts, the course covers diverse applications and construction methods, emphasizing stress distribution complexities and the pivotal role of site investigation. It then delves into Pre-Excavation Support Systems, dissecting rock mass classification, excavation methods, and various support techniques like Ground Freezing and Face Grouting. The Retaining Systems module follows, providing insights into structures for soil stabilization, including Contiguous Pile, Secant Pile, Soldier Pile, Sheet Pile, and D-Wall. The final module, "Concepts and Tools in Embedded Retaining Systems," addresses design parameters, lateral earth pressures, and numerical modeling, integrating practical applications and relevant codes. This comprehensive course equips learners with the knowledge and skills needed for efficient, safe, and successful deep excavation projects.
