Abstract

In order to investigate the influence of tunnel excavation on adjacent rigid-flexible pile bearing horizontal load,many three-dimensional numerical analysis were conducted by altering the pile-soil stiffness resulted from the change of elastic modulus, radius, and length of pile. Many useful conclusions can be drawn. The longitudinal shear force and transverse bending moment of pile increase with the increment of longitudinal horizontal loads and pile-soil stiffness ratio for the pile of constant length. Therefore, different measures must be executed to protect adjacent piles with different stiffness during tunneling. This study can provide some references for the design and construction of tunnel.
