Abstract: Based on the overlapping tunnel of Tel Aviv Red Line Light Rail Project in Israel, this study established a three-dimensional numerical model by using Rhino6 and FLAC^3D software on the basis of analysis of on-site monitoring data, to investigate the ground settlement and stratum displacement laws of shield overlapping tunnel at different overlapping angles.Results show that when the two tunnels gradually transit from horizontal to overlapping state, with the increase of overlapping angle of the two tunnels, the accumulated settlement at the measuring points in the middle of the two tunnels increases, but the accumulated settlement is not only affected by overlapping angle, but also closely related to the stratum traversing situation.Under the stratum condition of the project, when the overlapping angle is 60°, the accumulated surface settlement reaches the maximum because both tunnels pass through the loose reservoir K1 stratum.When the overlapping angle of the rear-built tunnel is less than 45° after excavation, the width of the settlement trough increases.When the overlapping angle is larger than 45° and smaller than 60°, the width of the settlement trough remains unchanged.The width of settlement trough decreases when the overlapping angle is larger than 60°.When the overlapping angle reaches 90°, the settlement trough is symmetrical on both sides.After excavation of tunnels on both sides, when the overlapping angle of the tunnels reaches 75°, the strata on both sides change the direction of movement.This research offer reference for the design and construction of overlapping tunnels.
