This paper narrated cause of building damaged induced by the SMW method, which is regarded as a construction method that will not cause soil disturbance and damaged to adjacent buildings. In reality, SMW method disturbs the earth like Bored-pile method when it is constructed, particularly in soft clay with N≦4 orω≧LL, and in loose sand with N≦10. In these soils, the SMW walls may contain mud and leak. To protect adjacent buildings, the SMW method most adopt the same precautious measures as the Bored-pile method.
