Introduction When considering deep excavations supported by diaphragm walls, it is well known that it is very important to consider the effects of the construction process. An important part in these analyses is the modelling of the fresh concrete pressure. For that reason, first the experiences in fresh concrete in slender geometries are presented. Then the standard boundary conditions and measurements of fresh concrete pressures in diaphragm walls are shown. In the end, new measurements in Rotterdam are extensively explained and discussed. Up to now, only little information exists on the effect of the simulations of the construction process in numerical analyses. For that reason, the installation process of a diaphragm wall panel in Rotterdam is modelled with a 3D Finite Element analysis. The construction process of three panels, i.e. the trenching and the concreting procedure, is numerically simulated. The data for the suspension- and the fresh concrete pressure are based on on-site measurements in the diaphragm wall panels. The extensive monitoring program in Rotterdam next to five diaphragm wall panels, also include measurements of pore water- and earth pressures as well as vertical and horizontal deformations. Finally, results from the numerical calculation are compared with data from the in situ measurements. 2.
