In order to evaluate the influence of pipe jacking construction process on ground subsidence and surrounding buildings, the numerical simulation of the construction process was carried out by FLAC3D, and the failure approach index (FAI) of the rock and soil around the pipeline was calculated to describe quantitatively their risk and damage state. The numerical results show that the final settlements of the buildings around the pipeline are less than the buildings' safety control values. The rock or soil mass within 0.8 times of the pipe diameter are in the excavation damage zone and disturbance zone (0.8≤FAI≤1.3), while outside 0.8 times of the pipe diameter are basically undisturbed (FAI≤0.8).
