Abstract:The SMW construction pile is generally used as the supporting structure for the foundation pit with a depth of less than 11 m. It has the characteristics of short construction period, no pollution, low noise and recyclable. In order to study the applicability of this construction method in ultra-deep foundation pits, taking a foundation pit project (foundation pit depth of 15 m) in Suzhou as an example, the lateral deformation of SMW construction pile, steel strength bearing capacity, surface settlement and other laws are calculated under the construction conditions of excavating the ultra-deep foundation pit, and the on-site construction verification is carried out. The result shows that the SMW construction method can be used for the enclosure structure of the foundation pit with a depth of about 15 m, and has the obvious advantages in the construction period, environmental protection and economy, which provides the reference for the other similar projects.
