    OVERVIEW
    Deep excavations near existing buildings present significant challenges due to excavation-induced ground movement, retaining wall deformation, and adjacent building settlement. Selecting an appropriate excavation support system and construction sequence is therefore critical to maintaining stability and minimizing risks to surrounding structures.

    This webinar will focus on practical engineering approaches for controlling ground movement in deep excavations near existing buildings. The session will demonstrate how engineers can evaluate excavation behavior, understand soil structure interaction, and assess the influence of excavation stages on surrounding ground and structures using GTS NX.

    Participants will gain practical insights into assessing excavation-induced deformation, identifying risks to adjacent structures, and developing safer and more reliable deep excavation solutions using numerical analysis.
