Monitoring of the Enclosing Structure of a Deep Pit
The article presents an experience in optimization of the design solution of enclosing the pit of 14.4 m depth. The monitoring of moving of the pit enclosingby two methods shows comparable results (moving during the process of excavation of the pit and its further operation didn’t exceed 16 mm).Monitoringthe readings of force sensors has made it possible to conclude that the effects of creep of the anchor root are absent and the stresses in anchors were significantly lesser that obtained according to the calculation. Low values of stresses in anchors are due to the low values of displacement of the excavationfence. Monitoring systems are an important instrument for obtaining factual information about the enclosing conditions during the process of pit excavationas well as its further operation.
