    • A methodology for analysing the drainage system in excavations between sheet pile walls 

      Jurado Elices, Anna; Bolster, Diogo; Pujades Garnes, Estanislao; Vázquez Suñé, Enric; Carrera Ramírez, Jesús (2009-10)
      Conference lecture
      Open Access
      The development of an underground station below the water table requires rigorous and careful planning. As such an in depth knowledge of the station construction designs and the related hydraulic behavior are required in ...

    • Barrier effect of underground structures on aquifers 

      Pujades Garnes, Estanislao; López, Ander; Carrera Ramírez, Jesús; Vázquez Suñé, Enric; Jurado Elices, Anna (2012)
      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      Impervious structures below the water table modify the natural groundwater flow in aquifers. They act as barriers, causing heads to rise upgradient and to fall downgradient. We define the barrier effect as the increase in ...

    • Deep enclosures versus pumping to reduce settlements during shaft excavations 

      Pujades Garnes, Estanislao; Vázquez Suñé, Enric; Carrera Ramírez, Jesús; Vilarrasa Riaño, Víctor; De Simone, Silvia; Jurado Elices, Anna; Ledesma Villalba, Alberto; Ramos Schneider, Gonzalo; Lloret Morancho, Antonio (2014-02-04)
      Article

      Deep excavations in aquifers may be constructed by combining pumping with the cut and cover method. The enclosures are often deepened more than structurally needed, in order to diminish the risk of heave or fluidisation ...

    • Dewatering of a deep excavation undertaken in a layered soil 

      Pujades Garnes, Estanislao; Vázquez Suñé, Enric; Carrera Ramírez, Jesús; Jurado Elices, Anna (2014-08-21)
      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      In order to carry out deep excavations under the water table in urban environments, the safety of the work site and of the adjacent buildings is a major cause for concern. One of the most common and effective methods of ...
