Özet:
Foundation settlement criteria are highly sensisitive for geothermal power plants. In geotechnical literature there are several settlement analyses which can be done by using elastic approaches, in-situ test results or numerical methods. Unfortunately, all these methods cannot give close results with each other. As a result, the unrepresentative analyses influence the safety, economy and time of the projects. In this study, the settlement of the geothermal power plant located in Aydın / İncirliova which constructed on a raft foundation was investigated. According to soil investigations, the raft foundation is located on multilayer soil profile and a compacted high qualified fill layer is placed under the raft foundation. Soil parameters were obtained from in-situ tests (standard penetration tests, cone penetration tests, pressuremeter tests and plate load test and) and laboratory experiments. Settlement results were obtained by 1D stress – strain analyses and 3D continuum numerical analyses (Hardening Soil Model with Small Strain Stiffness and Mohr Coulomb Soil Model) using the commercially available Settle 3D and Plaxis 3D software, respectively. The results of these analysis were also compared with the field monitoring data. The results show that Hardening Soil Model with Small Strain Stiffness gave more accurate result than other models due to the representation of real soil behavior, obtaining non-uniform stress distribution of foundation and obtaining effective stress depth accurately for settlement.
