Structures supporting the slopes of the foundation pit were installed in a densely built-up city area. Geological studies had been carried out, and based on the conclusion, the design of reinforcing the pit was prepared for the first time along the outer perimeter with interlocked steel piles. Due to the insufficient length (12 m) of the steel pile sheets, additional column constructions were used, which created a spatial supporting frame of the pit, ensuring the stability of the pit’s slopes.
