Abstract
Currently the brownfields are frequently used for the construction of industrial units. A designed homogenization coal deposit (HCD) has determined very strict limits for the deformation of the foundation. Since there is heterogeneous unconsolidated spoil heap with huge depths in the area, the implementation of the foundation using classic technologies will be very complicated. We have done geological investigation and field testing. We have determined several methods of feasible foundation. Individual options have been reviewed by numerical modeling using finite element method. Furthermore, the monitoring system was projected and constructed along with foundation of the HCD. Nowadays, we have more than 15 years of experience with service the HCD - thanks to continuous data from the monitoring. At this time, we are still observing this area also with numerical modeling and field tests. The field tests are repeated every 5 years, with the aim to measure the bearing capacity of bedrock vs. the stacker (loader machine). A lot of output data over a long time period, carried out field tests including numerical modeling are unique. © The authors and IGS: All rights reserved, 2019.
