Abstract. The paper presents deformations of tunnel structures under the influence of earthquakes. The seismic impact on shallow laid tunnels in saturated soil of low bearing capacity was considered through the analysis of longitudinal and transversal loads. Stress and strain states were specially analyzed.
Key words:  shallow-laid tunnels, seismic load, stress state, structural deformation

STANJE NAPONA I DEFORMACIJA USLED UTICAJA ZEMLJOTRESA NA 
PLITKO POLOŽENE TUNELSKE OBJEKTE U ZASIĆENOM SLABONOSIVOM TLU
U radu se prikazuju deformacije tunelskih konstrukcija usled delovanja zemljotresa. Predmet razmatranja bili su seizmički uticaji na plitko položene tunele u zasićenom tlu slabih karakteristika kroz analizu podužnih i transverzalnih opterećenja. Posebno je analizirano naponsko i deformacijsko stanje.
