The buoyancy of groundwater can reduce the foundation bearing capa-city and cause the metro tunnels to float as a whole,which threatens the safety of structures seriously.Therefore,uplift piles are set up to improve the structural sta-bility.In this paper,FLAC3D software is used to establish the calculation models of pile foundation.The bearing failure process of uplift piles was simulated to study the influencing factors on single pile load bearing capacity as well as the cooperative work laws of pile groups.The load-displacement curves of pile top under different length-diameter ratios,pile soil interface characteristics and pile types are obtained,respectively.The results showed that,increasing the length-diameter ratio and the pile-soil interface roughness properdly can improve the bear-ing capacity of uplift piles.Besides,changing the shapes of constant pile section can also improve it,which has the most significant effect concerning of saving material cost.In the loading process of pile groups,the ultimate bearing capacity of corner pile is the biggest,the side pile is the next,and the center pile is the smallest.The de formation characteristics of pile top are as follows:the center pile is the biggest,the side pile is the next,and comer pile is the smallest.Combined with the results,the uplift resistance of group piles can be enhanced pertinently,and the conclusions provide guidance for the design and construction of up lift piles in the actual engineer.
