Finite Element Analysis on Causes of Crack in Large Underground Garage

The paper aims to solve the serious and regular crack problems in underground garage. ANSYS finite element software is applied to set up the overall finite element model on floor-foundation and foundation coupling beam-foundation soil in underground garage. Combined with engineering field detection, factors influencing underground garage floor like underground water level, soil expansion caused by water content change in expansive soil, soil poisson ratio, foundation settlement are taken into consideration to find out the causes of cracks. The study is expected to provide reference for similar cases in other projects.
