Abstract: In order to analyze the mutual influence between the long-span highway tunnel and urban rail transit tunnel that is constructed at proximity, this paper established 3D finite element models based on Chongqing Zengjiayan Tunnel and the Metro Railway Line 9 and Line 10 projects to calculate and analyze the secondary lining stress, distribution and change law of deformation of Zengjiayan Tunnel and the Metro Railway Line Tunnel. The results show that: (1) The main risk of the Zengjiayan Tunnel is that the tunnel body might displace in the excavation and the surrounding rock stress could possibly change. The forces undertaken by the main structure of the cross-section are calculated and analyzed based on the shallow buried tunnel. Accordingly, the horizontal and vertical displacement limit and relative displacement meet the relevant specification; (2) Zengjiayan Tunnel over the lobby of Liyuchi Station, a transitional station of Line 9 and Line 10. The main risk is the displacement of the transitional channel in the excavation and changes in the stress on surrounding rocks, but the risk of self-structure excavation and support is under control.
