Abstract
Foundation pits also involve large amount of underground excavations, which are somehow similar to the tunneling sequences. Foundation pits instability not only poses dangers to the projects themselves but also puts the surrounding buildings or facilities at risk. This chapter introduced a few cases of instable pits, discussed possible causes of their failures and proposes feasible measures to achieve stable equilibrium and the deformation compatibility control status.
