The additional stresses induced by propulsion of double-o-tube(DOT) shield are calculated by means of the Mindlin’s equations in elasticity. The characteristics of additional stresses and the extent of soil disturbance of DOT shield construction are analyzed with compound Gauss-Legendre integral arithmetic. In the analysis

the excess earth pressure and the lateral friction between shield skin with surrounding soil are taken into account. The outcome makes clear that the soil disturbance of DOT shield has the regional characters

such as drag and extrusion above the sea-gulled segment and extrusion and friction lateral of the shield skin. The lateral friction has more effect on soil disturbance than the excess earth pressure. The conclusion can be as reference for the traversing construction nearby the underground pipeline and the building foundation for DOT shield.
