The Treatment Proposal of Anomalous Movement of CDM

1. The Anomalous Situation on Site

1.1 The Analysis of the Relative Data from the inclinometer
The finished piling work is about 90m shoreline-length presently, please refer to the
drawing as follow, and the inclinometers which have the anomalous movement are on the
point I06, I07, I08, I19 and I20, please refer to the appendix 1.

1.2 The Situation of the Earth-surfaces Crack on the CDM Area

The crack on the CDMs surface is between the first row and the second row at first,
and then it is becoming bigger as the dredging work goes on. The crack appears on the
place where the distance is about 10m from the steel sheet pile, and the width is more
than 20cm. There are water flood from the crack when the flood tide is coming. The
positions of the crack please refer to the drawing as follow. The CDM movement has been
observed for a long time, the detail information is shown in appendix 2.

2. The Analysis on the Reason of the Anomalous Movement

2.1 The Effect of Spring Tide
On the site recently from Jan 09 to Jan 15, there is the worst tide of the whole year, the
lowest water level is +0.1m CD; the speed of the tides fluctuation is fast, while the speed
of drain among CDM columns and between CDM columns and steel sheet pile is slow, so
that there is a high hydraulic pressure in columns. This is the efficient amse of anomalous
movement.
2.2 The Integrity of CDM Columns is different from assumptive model
CDM columns are supposed to be a close integer when the effect against the earths
lateral displacement is considered, but there is neither coincidence nor cross connection
among designed column, only tangency is existed. Meanwhile, there is some construction

error during the working, so there is the integrity of CDM Columns is different from
assumptive CDM columns model. The actual measurement of the displacement on the
top of CDM column also proved this situation, that is, the front CDM have a bigger
displacement, and the displacement of the behind CDM is becoming small as the distance
to the steel sheet pile is becoming bigger.
3. Suggestion
Cancel 1.5m height of the CDM columns top which behind the steel sheet pile, and make
a trench which is about 7 CDM rows width behind the steel sheet pile, at the same time,
the steel sheet pile shall be removed.
When the piling works are finished, A concrete retaining wall shall be erected in the trench,
in order to resist the earth pressure caused by the backfilling, in order to increase the
Integrity of CDM column, a reinforcement concrete slab shall be cast in place on the top of
CDM column, the detail structure is shown as follows:
