This paper investigates the role of basement depth on the response of framed buildings to
tunnel construction in sandy soil using finite element modelling. Six frames are considered …

This technical note examines the shear distortion of plane strain framed structures resulting
from tunnelling-induced surface differential settlements. An equation for calculating the …

This study aims to investigate the behavior of ground surface settlement in TBM double-line
tunnels constructed under existing buildings and to devise a calculative representation for …

Tunnel construction is needed for infrastructure development in urban areas. However,
underground excavation can detrimentally influence adjacent buildings; in particular, for …

Special issue on building and infrastructure response to ground movement: Bridging the gap
between geotechnical and structural m Page 1 Delft University of Technology Special issue …

The paper summarises a series of researches aimed at investigating the response of framed
structures to tunnelling in coarse-grained soils. In particular, experimental data obtained by …

This paper investigates the role of nonlinear masonry behaviour on tunnelling-induced
damage in masonry buildings. A two-stage analysis method (TSAM) is adopted …
