Abstract

Wall piles supported with anchors are considered one of the most prevalent types of engineering support. This research includes studying the behavior of wall piles through a numerical parametric study using the FE-method program (PLAXIS 2D). The study includes the most influencing factors such as the angle of the inclination, the vertical spacing between the rows of anchors, and the distance of the first row of anchors from the ground surface. The effects of these factors on the stability of the wall were studied. Optimal positioning of the anchors is crucial, as it maximizes their effectiveness and contributes significantly to reducing the overall construction costs. The use of a guys queue for the economic aspect saves the cost of executing two guys queue because the effect of having two rows does not significantly change the transfer values. The optimum angle of inclination of the tensioner row is 15° in favor of safety, and as it gives good stability of the wall to the wedge wall, with an increase in this angle, the horizontal movement decreases. The first optimum dimension for a row of guys from the horizontal surface of the earth is O = 25%H. Decrease the values of horizontal movement of the wall by increasing the angle of friction.

1 Introduction

As urban development expands due to population growth, there is a heightened demand for high-rise buildings [1]. This has led to various considerations and approaches to accommodate the increasing population in urban areas. Each of these methods has advantages and disadvantages, and it is important to know the limits and areas of difference for each method [2]. The use of numerical modeling as the finite element method and finite differences provided a means to predict the behavior of facilities and maintain their stability. To reduce settlements to an acceptable amount, the foundation shall be made of a number of necessary piles, and the loads shall be transferred from the structure, via raft, partly to the foundation soil and partly to the piles (the load combined between the raft and the piles) [3,4]. The contact area of the foundation with the soil is much more than any other type of foundation as in the case of the raft foundation, so the load is distributed over a larger area and soil shear is possible. This leads to lowered and less pressure on the soil, which is beneficial for the foundation [5,6]. In stacked raft foundations, the combined load between piles and raft is affected by the complex interaction between soil and structure. Stacked rafts are made more efficient and economical by optimizing the number and location of outriggers [7,8].

1.1 Research importance and objectives

  • The aim of the research on the mud foundation basins is to analyze the behavior of the wedge walls supported by the guys as static behavior using the finite element method through a mathematical model.

  • Achieving sufficient accuracy and the best parametrically studied cement solution.

  • The study highlights the most important design considerations, especially for this type of wedge wall.

  • To determine the optimal economic situation for the ranks of the comrades, display the plans of soil transfers behind the wall.

  • The research presents a realistic example of using the static study and the reinforcement method, as the reinforcement requires a large implementation time and a large cost, which makes predicting the behavior, stability, and design of the walls a matter that requires a lot of effort. Accuracy and error can lead to disastrous results. Guys are designed with a results statement while selecting the best solutions with the least cost and time.

1.2 Research methodology

The research depends on the comparative analytical method and includes the following stages.

1.2.1 Finite element modeling

Creating a numerical model involves revisiting a previously examined free wedge wall. This process includes defining the realistic soil characteristics, determining external loads, specifying the depth of the foundation pit, and implementing an applied clay soil in the analysis.

In the modeling, the PLAXIS 2D program was used for numerical modeling by the method of Al-Aasr Al-Fatihah.

The mathematical model was calibrated using Moore–Coulomb’s law, and an appropriate mathematical model was developed with all its properties and terminal conditions.

1.2.2 Parametric study

The effect of several parameters included in the design of the wedge wall supported by tensions on the stability and balance of the wall was studied.

1.2.2.1 Numerical model

We utilized numerical programs primarily based on the finite element method. However, these programs present certain challenges, including the selection of a suitable soil model, determination of soil parameters dependent on initial soil conditions, consideration of surrounding conditions and analysis type, as well as interpretation and evaluation of the results.

1.2.3 The reference studies and the field model

A model of a wedge wall reinforced with three-row anchors was adopted for one of the previous studies (Anton Szavits Nossan, [8]) with clay soil, as shown in Figure 1.

1.2.3.2 Material specification

The wall of the foundation pit is made of cast-in-place concrete with a thickness of 0.6 m with contact stakes, using linear elastic behavior in modeling, and the wall is supported by three rows of anchors with different angles of inclination.

The additional load of the old building adjacent to the excavation was modeled as a uniformly distributed load of 72 kN/m2.

2 Discussion and the studied sports model

  1. As for the terminal conditions and dimensions of the studied model, they are according to Figure 3.

    • Concerning the specifications of the drop wedge wall, the foundation basin is supported by a wedge wall consisting of adjacent pegs, and the spacing between the centers of the pegs is Sh = D, and according to the researcher in reference [2], D = Dp = 60 cm, which is the diameter of the stake. The specifications of the studied wedge wall are as follows: the volumetric weight of reinforced concrete is 25 kPa; the modulus of elasticity of the Eref is 25 GPa; and the Poisson’s modulus is 0.3.

    • With regard to the specifications of the tensioners studied, they are identical to the injected body in all rows. The specifications are as follows: the hardness of the first row of EA turnbuckles is 117,000 kN; the hardness of the second- and third-row turnbuckles is 146,000 kN; and the injected body stiffness for all grades is 30,000 kN.

  2. As for the proposed soil specifications, clay soil was used, which extends to the end of the foundation depth, followed by hard clay, depending on the findings of Mollahasani [3]. The following are numerically studied soil properties:

    Material type: drained hard clay and drained pelleted clay.

    The unsaturated density (above the water level) is 18 kg/m3 for fine clay and 21 kg/m3 for hard clay.

    The saturated density is 19 kg/m3 for fine clay and 21 kg/m3 for hard clay.

    The transmittance in the horizontal direction is 0.0001 m/day.

    The transmittance in the vertical direction is 0.0001 m/day.

    The soil modulus of elasticity is 9,000 kPa for sifted clay and 300,000 kPa for hard clay.

    The effective cohesion is 20 kPa for sintered clay and 25 kPa for hard clay.

    The effective friction angle is 29 grit and 30 grit.

    The volumetric expansion angle is 0 in both cases.

    Poisson’s factor is 0.25 for vegetated clay.

  3. User Code of Conduct:

    The researcher found [3] that the best law of matter used in alluvial soils, which accurately represents soil deformations and mimics reality, is Mohr–Coulomb’s law adopted in modeling.

  4. Parametric study:

The wedge wall was modeled as a free wall in the soil without reinforcement with tensioners. The modeling resulted in the deformation of the wedge wall and its rotation toward the foundation basin with a value of H max = 6.27 cm > H all at the top of the wall according to Figures 4 and 5. Therefore, the wedge wall needs to be reinforced with an appropriate number of tensioners determined during the parametric study.

               Free wall deformation without reinforcement by tensioners.

Figure 5 
               Horizontal transition with the depth of the free wall without tensioners.
Figure 5

Horizontal transition with the depth of the free wall without tensioners.

The values of some constants have been adopted, which we will refer to when studying.

( m = 0.15 H , O = 0.25 H , p = 0.25 H , D = 60 cm , Lgeo = 7 m α = 15 ° )

2.1 Effect of the number of rows of guys nA

An angle of inclination from the horizontal of 15° was used, and the reinforcement was carried out with goggles and two rows of goggles nA = 1 and 2.

Figure 6 shows the convergence of the shape of the two curves in the two cases, as well as the significant decrease in the horizontal transmission, which causes the wall to withdraw toward the soil so that it resists the lateral push of the soil and changes the direction of movement of the wall.

Figure 6 
                  Comparison of the curves of the horizontal transition values with depth.
Figure 6

Comparison of the curves of the horizontal transition values with depth.

The H max = 4.35 cm > H aaa in the case of a row of guys, and the H max = 4.3 cm > Haaa in the case of two guys, and the DH = 0.05 cm and is equivalent to 1.15%, which is a small difference, so one row of guys will be approved.

The height of the transition is at the top of the wall, and the shape of the curve is wavy. Therefore, it is sufficient to use one row of guys from an economic point of view to save the cost of implementing two guy rows, since the effect of the presence of two rows does not significantly change the transfer values. There is no importance in studying the presence of a second row of tension bands, because its effectiveness is low since the presence of a female group of tension bands achieves sufficient and great stability for the wedge wall.

The effect of changing the angle of inclination of the rows of Alpha Guys:

The case of nA = 1 was adopted to choose the angle that achieves the best stability for the wall. Several values of the inclination angle were studied: 5°, 10°, 12°, 15°, and 20°, and the rest of the parameters were fixed as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7 
                  Comparison of the horizontal transition curves with depth for the case of two shadings at several values of inclination angle.
Figure 7

Comparison of the horizontal transition curves with depth for the case of two shadings at several values of inclination angle.

Figure 7 shows a slight decrease in transmission with an increase in the angle of inclination in the cohesive clay soil due to the decrease in the effectiveness of tension on friction according to the study by Wen (2012) (https://doi.org/10.1155/2020/2109535). The curve that gives the lowest values of horizontal transmission is the angle case curve of 15° and 20°.

Figure 8 shows the value of H max = 3.582 cm in the case of an angle of 15°. In the case of H max = 3.6 cm and the angle is 20°, the DH = 0.015 cm between the two cases for the angle value of 15° and 20°, which is a small difference and is equivalent to 0.5%.

                  Comparison of the horizontal transition curves over the entire length of the wall with the depth at several values of (0).
Figure 8

Comparison of the horizontal transition curves over the entire length of the wall with the depth at several values of (0).

The angle of 15° was adopted as the ideal angle, and researcher Sliwinski (https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-349-13258-4) in 1971 considered that the ideal angle of inclination of the tension in the clay should be <20°. Esame (https://doi.org/10.1016/0032-5910(75)80036-2) in 2014 found that the best tension angle makes the tensioner work with the greatest tensile strength <15° in clayey granulated soils at an average soil friction of 25.

2.1.1 Effect after the first row of tensioners on the horizontal surface of the earth (O)

The angle adopted was 15°, and several values were given to (0) as a percentage of the height of the foundation basin as follows (Figure 8):

O = 0.1H, 0.125H, 0.15H, 0.2H, 0.25H, 0.36H, 0.35H

Figure 8 shows the decrease in the values of the horizontal wall transition as it increases (0); the curve representing the case of 0 = 25%H represents a wavy curve with a low transmission value and its peak in the middle of the wall. In the case of 0 = 35%H, H max = 3.25 and H max = 3.62 cm. In the case of 0 = 0.25H, all values are low and within the permissible limits.

Furthermore, DH = 0.1 cm equals 10.2%, which is a small difference. From the above, the 0 = 0.25H case was adopted as an ideal case for ease of implementation, which is consistent with Naveen’s 2014 study.

2.1.2 Effect of changing the soil friction angle parameter behind the wedge wall

It was adopted after the first row of tensioners from the ground surface 0 = 0.25H; the friction angle of 5° was not used due to the collapse of the wall at this value; and several values were given for the angle of friction of the soil reserved behind the peg wall: 10°, 15°, 20°, and 25°, as shown in Figures 8 and 9.

Figure 9 
                     Curves of horizontal transition over the entire length of the wall with depth at different values of the soil friction angle held behind the wedging wall.

3 Conclusions

  1. The use of a guys queue for the economic aspect saves the cost of executing two guys queue because the effect of having two rows does not significantly change the transfer values.

  2. The optimum angle of inclination of the tensioner row is 15° in favor of safety, and as it gives good stability of the wall to the wedge wall, with an increase in this angle, the horizontal movement decreases.

  3. The first optimum dimension for a row of guys from the horizontal surface of the earth is O = 25%H.

  4. Decrease the values of horizontal movement of the wall by increasing the angle of friction.

3.1 Recommendations

  1. Due to the complexity of the studied issue and its containment of very many parameters, it is recommended to conduct a parametric study for this type of wall and reinforcement using multiple numerical programs to compare the results and support the results.

  2. It is recommended to conduct a parametric study for more parameters such as lowering the groundwater level, the depth of the wall penetration, the type and specifications of the impounded soil, and the expansion of the studied parameters.

  3. It is recommended to study the stability of the wedge walls, taking into account the dynamic analysis of the wall.
