Abstract: Results of precise monitoring provided in two parallel lines using the sliding micrometre were used for back-analysis to determine moment, shear force and superimposed lateral stresses distribution acting on the wall. The method of back analysis will be presented in the paper together with the recent development of the application of BOTDA (Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis) for geotechnical structures to innovate the way of above instrumentation. The present trial version of the developed software for back analysis brings benefits in detailed knowledge of distribution of actual internal forces in the structure on the construction site, which can be compared with those calculated at the design stage.
Keywords: retaining structures, geotechnical monitoring, internal forces, back analysis, fibre optics
