This dissertation mainly analyzes that the deep foundation pit engineering in civil construction, which may impact on the environment and could cause disasters.
But on the engineering application, the foundation pit engineering construction disturbance can't satisfy impact hang around buildings and the original underground pipeline safety normal use can.
So the selection principle of foundation pit engineering retaining system is safe, economic and convenient for construction, Determined selection to suit measures to local conditions.
In addition, the disturbance control of Foundation pit engineering construction should adopt a comprehensive approach.
