Abstract

Based on the actual project, a three-dimensional simulation model is constructed to study the deformation and stress characteristics of the special-shaped soil-rock foundation pit excavation of the suspended pile. By adopting bar demolition method, a strength redundancy expression method based on the ultimate bearing capacity of the inner support is proposed, and two inner support importance evaluation indexes of the associated bar and the correlation coefficient are proposed. The findings indicate:(1) Deformation of special-shaped soil-rock foundation pit with the suspended pile mainly concentrates in the upper soil layers, the position of the positive angle and the middle of the longest side of the foundation pit., achieving a peak value of 17.02 mm. This deformation is linked to the geometric composition and stiffness distribution of the support system itself. Notably, the upper deformation of the supporting structure at the positive corner of the foundation pit is larger, and the influence range is about 2 times that at the negative corner; (2) The strength redundancy based on ultimate bearing capacity can comprehensively and quantitatively evaluate the redundancy of deep foundation pits, where the associated bar can pinpoint which component would be most affected after damage occurs, while the correlation coefficient can, to some extent, reflect critical components within support structures; (3) The redundancy of the inner support based on the ultimate bearing capacity is related to its own load and the arrangement of adjacent support bars. The minimum is 4.18. The associated bar are mainly concentrated in the adjacent bars. In the design of the correlation coefficient, should be optimized to decrease the correlation coefficient of the bar and improve the overall reliability of the support structure.
