Verification of the results of the geotechnical monitoring using finite element method

Abstract

Verification of the results of the geotechnical monitoring using finite element analysis shows that this method allows you to make a sufficiently accurate prediction of the behavior of the structure. The actual modeling of course does not replace a full geotechnical survey dealing with complex structures and foundation conditions. To create the attention-grabbing computational models have yet to be analyzed a larger volume of monitoring data structures, allowing us to acquire the knowledge necessary to create models describing the behavior of most real structures before executing the actual construction. These methods, although in some cases require a more comprehensive set of input data, but the general trend in the field of geotechnical engineering is to implement the proposals without undue overcapacity structures, which is only possible in the rigorous knowledge of the geology of the site and properties of the building materials. © SGEM2013 All Rights Reserved by the International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConference SGEM.
