FEATURES OF THE TECHNOLOGY OF INSTALLING SHORT SHEET PILE WALLS IN THE CONDITIONS OF A COMPACTED BUILDINGS
In the context of modern urban development, the challenge of constructing buildings and structures within densely populated areas is particularly pressing. The technologies employed in such scenarios are predominantly based on creating sheet pile walls or protective screens between existing and proposed structures to avoid impact on the subsoil beneath existing foundations. The article explores the requirements for applying mechanization methods in constructing pile foundations under the constraints of dense urban development. The study is based on an analysis of several critical parameters, including the engineering and geological conditions of the site, the compressibility of the ground, the dimensions of the construction site, and the space available for additional equipment, storage, and unloading areas. It identifies the key conditions and technologies for arranging inter-pile fillings for sheet pile walls. A structural and technological solution is proposed for manually constructing inter-pile filling in short sheet pile walls. The article also outlines the technological stages for erecting monolithic reinforced concrete sheet pile walls using a manual auger. The practical implementation of the proposed technology for foundation construction with a compatible sheet pile wall effectively avoids impacting neighboring structures in areas adjacent to existing foundations. Technological control over the construction stages is crucial to ensuring the bearing capacity of sheet pile barriers of this type. Additional research is needed to develop an engineering methodology for calculating the performance of short sheet piles in such foundation systems. Finally, it presents the practical results of implementing the proposed technology, demonstrating its feasibility and effectiveness.
