SUMMARY:Soil-structure interactions during underground construction: measu
 rement and monitoring - Dr Brian Sheil\, University of Cambridge

DESCRIPTION:Uncertainty surrounding how structures interact with soil rema
 ins a key barrier to optimising cost\, time and environmental savings for 
 underground construction. This is particularly the case for large-diameter
  caissons used for the water and wastewater industry where soil-structure 
 interactions critically affect the construction process. A recent EPSRC-fu
 nded project (‘FOCUS’) sought to tackle these uncertainties using new 
 measurement\, monitoring and feedback systems by combining fibre optic sen
 sing with machine learning. This seminar provides an overview of the proje
 ct using a recent UK case history including the soil-structure insights ex
 tracted from the monitored data and the resulting impact on industry.\n\n\
