Numerical Simulation of Double-row Piles in Deep Foundation Pit Excavation

Abstract This paper aims to investigate the stress and deformation characteristics of double-row piles in deep foundation pit excavation by selecting representative strata in the Changchun area. The changes in bending moment, displacement, and earth pressure of double-row piles during the excavation are established using the FALC 3D software. The findings indicate that the deformation of the front pile is larger than that of the back pile, and the earth pressure distribution of the fornt pile deviates from the conventional Rankine earth pressure theory. Moreover, there are noticeable variations in earth pressure at the soil layer interface of the rear pile.
