Abstract
Diaphragm wall construction causes changes in the original stress state, resulting in soil movements. These deformations can be quantified using the 3-dimensional finite element model presented in this paper. The predictions made are compared with measurements made during diaphragm wall construction for the SONY excavation in Berlin. The realistic stress state in the soil which is determined results from the application of a hypoplastic constitutive law with intergranular strain. It was found that the panel dimensions and the trench excavation sequence have a decisive effect on soil movements.
