This paper presents a new model of the load sharing law with a three-stage load sharing pattern via a representative case study in the Three Gorges reservoir region, China. A definitive new three-stage load transfer pattern is presented, including end-bearing soil arching, friction soil arching and the sliding mass in front of the pile. By means of the soil arching effect between the anti-sliding pile and landslide mass, the law of the load sharing ratio under different cases, including different intervals, section dimensions, driving forces, and shearing parameters of the sliding mass and the pile-soil interface, is presented by using the explicit finite-difference numerical modelling method. The results show that (a) the effect scale of the soil arching effect is within the scale of four times of the width of the pile; (b) the soil arching only exits within a certain pile interval, and it will become inefficiency beyond the maximum pile interval; (c) there is a threshold value for the cohesion strength parameters of the sliding mass, beyond which the load sharing ratios of soil arching keep in a steady level.
