  • The purpose of this study is to analyse the impact of pre-stress on a tieback excavation system. Previously, Peck et al. (1974) showed that the pre-stressing of struts and tiebacks considerably decreases ground movements thus concurrently reduce settlements adjacent to an excavation but these notes did not include the effects on the supports in an excavation system. The well-established effective stress Hardening Soil model in tandem with the popular finite element analysis software, PLAXIS 2D is employed to simulate the soil-structure interaction and behaviour for the National Taiwan University Hospital basement excavation under plane strain conditions. The calculated input parameters for the initial 2D model are used in a parametric study to analyse variations in the soil-tieback fixed section mobilised shear strength distributions, tieback fixed section length and Mohr-Coulomb plastic points with pre-stress. The mobilised shear strength distribution is used to estimate suitable fixed section lengths of tiebacks installed in the silty sands of Taipei, Taiwan. From the mobilised shear strength distributions for anchor diameters of 0.114m, a fixed length of 16.0m to 20.0m installed at a pre-stress load equal to 100 - 120% of the design load is suggested as an appropriate length since, a factor of safety attained from a c/phi reduction analysis surpassed the required minimum factor of safety of 1.6 for temporary tieback systems. A braced excavation case, the Cathay Life Insurance Office Building also constructed in Taipei, Taiwan, is modelled to compare the observed differences in the effect of pre-stress in both support systems. Pre-stress is found to have little effect on maintaining the stability of a braced excavation but seems to control the stability of a tieback excavation system.
