Abstract

Although the vacuum preloading has been widely used in the engineering, the influence area of horizontal de-formation is controversial. In order to clarify the influence range and show the deformation of nearby building during loading and unloading of vacuum pressure, a series of finite element analyses are carried out. The hori-zontal displacement of the ground and the building is shown quantitatively during the application of vacuum pressure. The inclination of the building during unloading is also calculated.
