Abstract
The progressive response of twothree storey masonry buildings to bored tunnelling on the Jubilee Line Extension in London is investigated in order to determine the eect of building stiness on tunnelling-induced ground movement. The masonry buildings, at Moodkee
Street and Keetons Estate, were aected by tunnelling with earth pressure balance machines on Contract 105 of the Jubilee Line Extension. Bending deformations and axial strain induced in these structures are compared to greeneld ground deformations and strain in
order to infer the eect of building stiness. The modifying inuence of the stiness of these buildings on ground movement is interpreted
using the Potts and Addenbrooke [Potts D.M., Addenbrooke, T.I., 1997. A structures inuence on tunnelling induced ground movements. Proc. Inst. Civ. Eng. Geotech. Eng. 125 (2), 109125] method, which is based on a series of nite element analyses. The inferred
building stiness that can be used for design purposes with the Potts and Addenbrooke method is compared to an estimation for a Class

1. Introduction
This paper presents an analysis of the progressive
response of low-rise masonry buildings at Moodkee Street
and Keetons Estate to construction of twin earth pressure
balance (EPB) tunnels on Contract 105 (C105) of the
Jubilee Line Extension. The progressive response of these
two to three storey masonry structures, pictured in Fig. 1,
is compared to the greeneld ground response of reference sites on C105, primarily at Southwark Park (Dimmock, 2003), in order to determine the inuence of

deformation parameters of deection ratio and horizontal

greeneld conditions and the resulting values termed modication factors. The modication factors are dened separately for deection ratios in sagging and hogging (see

such.
6. Discussion of building response
6.1. Bending deformations
The response of Clegg House in sagging appears to be
stier than for Murdoch House and Neptune House as is
evident from the smaller modication factors for Clegg
House shown in Fig. 12. The corresponding estimated relative bending stinesses are shown in Fig. 13. The relative
magnitude of these stinesses is of interest, since in order to
be consistent with the Potts and Addenbrooke denition of
relative bending stiness (see Eq. (5) of this paper) the
response of Clegg House would be expected to have 16
times the relative bending stiness of Neptune and Murdoch House by virtue of being half the length (assuming
all other parameters being equal). Indeed, the estimated relative bending stiness of Clegg House in sagging (for
design purposes) is approximately one order of magnitude
greater than that of Murdoch and Neptune Houses.
Neptune and Murdoch House are very similar buildings,
and consequently are expected to exhibit similar relative

bending stiness. As expected the building facades, excluding the south facade of Murdoch House, display a similar
inferred relative bending stiness in sagging for design purposes, approximately 1 103 m1, and a similar relative
bending stiness in hogging, approximately 1 104 m1
(see Fig. 13). The apparent fully exible response of the
south facade of Murdoch House both in sagging and hogging may be attributed to the section between monitoring
points 5013 and 5012, which required reconstruction following bomb damage in World War II (Withers, 2001b).
In the case of both Murdoch House and Neptune House
there is a strong indication that the building stiness is
greater in sagging than hogging (see Fig. 13). Such a comparison is not possible for Clegg House or Ben Smith Way
(BSW) facade at Keetons Estate because the facades only
display either sagging or hogging deformation but not a
combination of the two. The evidence in Fig. 12 is inconclusive with regard to whether the stiness of the response
in sagging reduces from the intermediate to nal settlement
prole, with 4 of 7 cases showing this trend. Note that the
modication factors estimated for Murdoch House (north
facade) for the eastbound tunnel, Murdoch House (south
facade) for the westbound tunnel, and Clegg House (east
and west facades) for the westbound tunnel increase from

adjustment was found to have negligible eect on the predicted response. The length of the beam was assumed to
be the full length of the building facade.
The relative bending stiness of Neptune House was
estimated by Mair and Taylor (2001) to be
1.3 102 m1. On the Potts and Addenbrooke design
charts (see Fig. 5a), M DRsag and M DRhog are less than 0.2
for this value of q* and hence the building was predicted
to behave almost rigidly in bending for any value of e/B.
Since the long dimension of Murdoch House is closer to
being parallel with the tunnels than Neptune House (see
Fig. 2) and possesses similar dimensions, Mair and Taylor
(2001) reasoned that the performance of the long facades of
Murdoch House should be even more rigid owing to the
inuence of the shorter dimension. The relative bending
stiness of Clegg House, by virtue of being half the length
of Neptune and Murdoch Houses, was predicted by Mair
and Taylor to have 16 times the relative bending stiness
(refer to Eq. (5)). Hence the relative bending stiness of
Clegg House was estimated to be 0.2 m1.
The relative axial stiness was estimated by Mair and
Taylor (2001) to be over 10 for Murdoch, Neptune and
Clegg Houses; hence an extremely rigid axial response
was predicted in all cases, ie. negligible axial strain was predicted to develop in the building.
Following the same procedure as adopted by Mair and
Taylor (2001) for the Moodkee Street buildings, estimates
of relative bending stiness and relative axial stiness were
made for the building facades along Ben Smith Way and
John Roll Way at Keetons Estate. These estimates are
given in Appendix B. The relative bending stiness of
Ben Smith Way section II is estimated as 0.6 m1 and
the relative bending stiness of John Roll Way section
V is 0.25 m1. The relative axial stiness of Ben Smith
Way section II is estimated as 53 and John Roll Way
section V as 39. Hence both sections are predicted to be
rigid in bending and in horizontal strain, regardless of
e/B ratio.
8. Comparison of observed response to predictions
The observed settlement proles of the Moodkee Street
buildings displayed more exibility than predicted by Mair
and Taylor, particularly in the hogging mode of deformation (Mair, 2003). This is also the case for the Keetons
Estate buildings if the same prediction approach is used
as adopted by Mair and Taylor. This is most notable in
the case of Neptune House, Murdoch House, and the John
Roll Way facade of Keetons Estate.
By taking the modication factors back-analysed from
the observed settlement proles using the Potts and Addenbrooke design charts, the inferred relative bending stiness
in sagging (which is obtained solely for design purposes in
the context of the Potts and Addenbrooke method) is
found to be generally one order of magnitude less than
originally predicted by the Mair and Taylor approach,
and the equivalent inferred relative bending stiness in
447

(1997) has only a small inuence on the calculated deection ratios for both hogging and sagging modes.

For masonry facades, it is proposed to estimate the relative bending stiness in hogging by considering the foundations only (thickness d1) as opposed to the full height of
the facade (d).
Assume Econcrete 16; 500 MPa and
Emasonry 10; 000 MPa:
In hogging; I bd 31 =12
In sagging; as predicted previously by
Mair and Taylor 2001 for both
sagging and hogging deformation; I bd 3 =12
Thus the ratio EIsag =EIhog 10 bd3 =12=16:5 bd31 =
3
12 10=16:5d=d 1
If d=d 1 10 as is approximately the case for the
Moodkee Street buildings
EIsag =EIhog 600
If d=d 1 3 for the Keetons Estate buildings
EIsag =EIhog 16
Hence, where the foundations are only shallow, as is particularly the case for the Moodkee Street buildings, the relative bending stiness considering only the contribution of
the foundations is several orders of magnitude lower than
that predicted using the full height of the building facade.
