The utility model provides a unilateral supporting device suitable for excavation of a municipal drainage pipeline groove, a supported groove is provided with an existing pipeline adjacent to a newly-built pipeline, the unilateral supporting device comprises a plurality of fixing piles, a supporting plate, surrounding purlins,
diagonal bracings and a plurality of base plates, the fixing piles are inserted into the side, where the existing pipeline is arranged, of the groove side by side, and the supporting plate is arranged on the supporting plate. The enclosing
purlin is fixed on the fixing piles and is perpendicular to the fixing piles, the supporting plate is arranged between the fixing piles and the groove and used for enclosing the
retaining wall, the base plates are fixedly padded at the bottom of the groove at intervals, the
diagonal braces are fixedly supported between the base plates and the enclosing
purlin, and the newly-built pipeline is laid at the bottom of the groove and located below the
diagonal braces.
