Abstract

In conjunction with actual engineering projects, due to the uneven terrain in mountainous areas, the construction of high-speed railways often encounters high embankment works. To minimize excavation and transportation of earth and rock while enhancing the load-bearing capacity, pile-supported retaining walls are commonly used as support structures in these high embankments. The interaction between the high embankment fill, pile foundation, and retaining wall determines the practicality of this composite structure. Based on the actual engineering background of the Liujiaxia Station on the Lanzhou-Xining High-Speed Railway, a numerical simulation analysis method was employed to establish a three-dimensional solid model. By simulating different construction stages, the study investigates the stress characteristics and deformation features of the combined support structure of pile-supported cantilever retaining walls.
