Estimating excavation-induced ground surface displacements in urban areas is needed to assess potential structure damage. Empirical settlement distribution models have been widely used to estimate the zone of influence and ground response behind braced excavation walls. Three underground station excavations, part of the Los Angeles Metro’s K Line Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project, offer a unique opportunity to collect field instrumentation data to improve estimates of ground deformations. One excavation employed cross-lot braces and soldier piles and wood lagging while the other two were supported by cross-lot braces and stiffer Cutter-Soil-Mixing (CSM) walls. For the excavations with stiff support systems and relatively small wall movements, upward surface displacement or heave governed the ground surface response, while surface settlement was measured at the excavation with the more flexible wall system. This heave behavior is often masked by settlement caused by relatively large wall movements, and is thus commonly disregarded. By idealizing the excavation unloading as an upward strip load at the ground surface, the Boussinesq solution for elastic upward movement can be used in combination with a settlement component resulting from lateral wall movements to estimate the magnitude and distribution of excavation-induced surface displacements.
