Abstract This paper analyzes the soil displacement effect during high-pressure jet grouting pile construction by simplifying the construction process as a series of pressure-controlled spherical cavity expansions in a semi-infinite soil medium. Based on the elastic-plastic solution of pressure-controlled spherical cavity expansion theory, a calculation method is proposed to estimate the soil displacement caused by high-pressure jet grouting pile construction. Non-linear contact theory between the pile and soil is introduced, and the finite difference method is employed to determine the internal forces and deformations of the pile. The proposed method is applied to field construction cases, and its validity is verified by comparing the results with on-site monitoring data. The research findings reveal that the soil displacement effect decreases with depth and primarily occurs in shallow soil layers during the construction of individual high-pressure jet grouting piles. The lateral displacement at the ground surface increases first and then decreases with the increase in horizontal distance, while the ground uplift exhibits an exponential decay trend.
