Mechanical response of deep circular shaft supported by steel frame and sprayed concrete in loess-paleosol sequence: A case study by Jiawei Kang, Guohua Deng, Shengjun Shao, Liqin Wang

“…The shallow and deep shaft linings show distinct convergence patterns. (3) After excavation, the deep lining's horizontal convergence, lateral pressure, and internal force in the secondary lining continues to develop for 25–172 days and gradually stabilizes. (4) The ground settlement influence zone is 1.5 R, while the horizontal deformation zone is less than 0.35 R, the lateral pressure on the shaft lining peaks at 0.45 H, the maximum d/H is 0.03 %. (5) The lateral pressure on shaft lining in the loess layer approaches the Rankine active soil pressure under minimal deformation, while that in the paleosol layer is only 30 % - 50 % of its active soil pressure.…”
