  25. Water : simplified 3D model Clay – low permeability e

  26. Low permeability High permeability Water : 3D model

  27. Water : 3D model

  28. Water : 3D model 1625 m3 / jour

  29. Water : 3D model Impermeable wall 0.04 m3 / jour

  30. Impermeable wall

  31. Temperature effect on bracing : 2D modelgeneral considerations for DT = 30 ° Free truss: Dl = aDT L/2 = 5 mm Fixed conditions DF = 1000 kN Imposed displacement DF = 165 kN Dux imposé = - 5 mm Dux = - 4.2 mm

  32. T : from 10 °C to 40 °C => DT = 30 °C Temperature effect on bracing : 2D modelimposing DT on bracing (Q4) T = 10 °C = cte

  33. Temperature effect on bracing : 2D modelimposing DT on bracing Dux = 0 (imposed) DN=230 kN

  34. Conclusions • Currently under construction • Predictions in the range of deformations and forces • Horizontal displacements slightly > measurements • Linked mainly to: • - « conservative » evaluation of f and c • - real water behaviour
