To study the regularity of force and deformation of utility tunnels under longitudinal uneven foundations, considering the traffic load, the authors established a finite element model based on pipe-soil interaction to analyze the effect of different working conditions on force and deformation of utility tunnel joints. The results indicated that different stiffness of the foundation can lead to different mechanical properties of the utility tunnel top plate, bottom plate and socket joints. The deformation of the bell joint which on the undisturbed soil and located 2 to 3 sections pipes to the replacement junction changes most obviously, meanwhile, as the longitudinal stiffness difference increases, the maximum horizontal opening on the top plate shifts closer to the replacement junction, and the maximum opening up to 3.561mm; the phenomenon of axial stress below the waterproof requirement exists in the interface of the top plate on the undisturbed soil and the interface of the bottom plate on the replacement soil at the difference in stiffness of the foundation is greater; the maximum differential settlement of joint is located the first corridor interface to the replacement junction which on the undisturbed soil, that is characterized by ‘decreasing from the replacement junction to both sides’.
