... of Young's modulus are calculated as Eu/Su = 150, 250 and 1000 for soft Bangkok clay, medium clay and stiff silty clay, respectively. The results have later been confirmed with the first self-boring pressuremeter tests in Bangkok subsoils. INTRODUCTION Deep excavations in Bangkok City of Thailand...

... of model parameters that minimises (or maximises) these key events whilst maintaining an acceptable fit of the model predictions with the observations. The method is applied to a problem of estimating tunnel settlements using numerical modelling and pressuremeter test results. The example demonstrates...
