Analysis on Engineering Geological Problems Related to Storey-addition of Siping-Building in Shanghai

Abstract:

Based on the in-situ investigation results for the storey-addition of Siping-Building, the engineering geological problems relate liquefaction of sandy soils and the settlements of an existed building caused by the storey-addition activities have been discussed. Results show that the long-time load of buildings is very useful for the increasing of both the strength of sub-soils and the anti-seism ability of sandy sub-soils.
