De-watering Design Considering the Post Construction Settlement

Ground subsidence might be occurred after the dewater operation around the deep excavation site. The ground movement might adversely affect the adjacent building foundations, pavements and underground utilities. It is therefore, during the dewater design stage, the effect of the adjacent environment should be appropriately evaluated.
