Abstract: The influence of the space dimensions on the deep excavation is investigated throughout the model tests as well as the numerical simulations by using ABAQUS software. The results indicate that the optimized deep excavation dimensions in a model are: the ratio of length in the active zone B1 over the cantilever length is 1.50. The ratio of length in the passive zone B2 over the embedment depth of the cantilever portionL2 is 3.0.
