The article presents the results of measurements of forces in the struts of deep excavation and the analysis and comparison with values calculated in the project. Engineering measurement system consisting of software, measuring unit, which operates together with the strain gauges was used. Strain gauges were glued to the prepared surface of the struts of the sheet pile. Measurements take into consideration different stages of earthworks and the corresponding loading. The use of partial safety factors for typical earth pressure of code on the wall ensured safe design struts excavation.
Keywords: deep excavations, forces in the struts, measurements, strain gauges.
