Numerical Simulation Analysis on Interaction among Underground Structure, Shear Connectors and Retaining Piles

Abstract:

The method of retaining piles working as an anti-floating piles has advantages of lesser environmental impact, high utilization of resources and good in economic benefits, but the method effecting on underground structure was worthy of further study and exploitation. According to the practical underground projects, this paper has proposed three possible connections between underground structure, shear connectors and retaining piles. The analysis showed that the internal force and displacement of underground structural is affected distinctly by the method. In addition, characters and applicable ranges of the three different connections is introduced with the finite element analysis and calculation of stress and displacement of the main parts like base plate ,top plate ,and so on.
