Construction of Zagrad foundation pit in Rijeka

Željko Arbanas

Abstract

The foundation pit construction for the Zagrad complex in Rijeka is presented. The excavation of the foundation pit in the rock mass was conducted by protecting the side hill cut with rock bolts and appropriate support systems. The realization of this work had to be strictly supervised due to complex geotechnical conditions at this construction site closely surrounded by existing structures. Early establishment of an appropriate system for the support system monitoring and checking enabled subsequent analyses and design during realization of the work.

Keywords
