Abstract
The deep vacuum dewatering method is effective for groundwater control in projects. By now, although the vacuum consolidation in soft soil foundation treatment has been analyzed much, the settlement of deep vacuum dewatering has not been researched sufficiently. Because of the extra vacuum pressure, the settlement should be analyzed further. In this paper, the settlement models are derived and analyzed based on the 2 vacuum pressure distribution models (plane seepage model and Johnson’s model), Imai and Chai’s vacuum consolidation models, and elastic model of traditional soil mechanics. And then a project case is provided to verify the theoretical models. The results show that the proposed model is suitable to predict the settlement and provide new references for vacuum dewatering engineering.
