Abstract: With the shallow-buried underground-excavated tunnel project of Hefei Metro Line 2 as research background, adopting numerical simulation and field measurement methods, the influence of tunnel excavation on deformation and stress of buried pipelines is studied. Results show that pipe material, pipe diameter, pipeline level stratum, pipe-tunnel spacing and excavation method are the most significant factors affecting the stress and deformation of pipelines. In the end, the working conditions and the combination of working conditions that require special attention in construction are given.
