Discussed herein is the performance of the wall system during excavation for one of the deepest basement excavations carried out in Taiwan. The paper focuses on two issues: correction of inclinometer readings to account for toe movements and the effectiveness of buttresses in reducing wall deflections. Reference envelopes for diaphragm walls at this particular site were established and these reference envelopes can be used for evaluating the performance of diaphragm walls during excavations with similar ground conditions.
