Research on the Effective Control of Ground Settlement during Double-Layered Foundation Pit Dewatering Based on Seepage Control-Recharge Coupling Model

This study focuses on the settlement of buildings around the foundation pit caused by foundation pit dewatering. Within the study context, a test is conducted on the control of ground settlement during double-layered foundation pit dewatering based on the seepage control-recharge coupling effect. Moreover, a large indoor seepage test device is developed to accurately simulate in-situ three-dimensional seepage conditions of double-layer foundations. The study results showed that compared to the antiseepage conditions, upon the additional recharge, the head of the upper row of the pressure measuring tubes outside the foundation pit is raised by nearly 10.7%, and the water level of the lower row of pressure measuring tubes is raised by about 3.1%. Additionally, the head of the outer side of each pressure measuring tube is higher than that of the inner side by about 2.75% on average, indicating that the recharge outside the pit can effectively increase the head height in the area above the soil layer at the bottom of the recharging well outside the foundation pit and reduce the settlement of the building outside the foundation pit. The numerical calculation of the settlement outside the pit using FLAC3D software further confirms the effect of the seepage control-recharge coupling model on the ground settlement during foundation pit dewatering. The research results are important for the infiltration deformation and foundation settlement control in composite foundations precipitation.
