In this study, the displacement of soft clay layer with installed Buttress type Self supporting Composite Wall (BSCW) was investigated using numerical method. The model was validated using the field displacement data at the front center of BSCW and parametric analysis of the model was implemented at varied cohesion, elastic modulus of 3 different clay layers (soft, medium, and stiff). In addition, parametric study was also performed for varied center-to-center distance of bottom cement grouting columns installed by jumbo special pattern (JSP) method. The results of parametric study demonstrated that the displacement of BSCW is the most significant in soft clay layer and low center-to-center distance of grouting columns is required at relatively low elastic modulus of clay layer.
