Ground subsidence is aggravated and becomes a prominent phenomenon recently in Tanggu, China. The subsidence reached its most critic state because of intensive water over-extraction in 1980s. Thereafter, over-draft withdraw of groundwater has been strictly controlled. Consequently, the rate of settlement decreased in the subsequent period. However, in recent year, ground subsidence becomes a prominent hazard again in some high-rise building areas .GPS-based monitoring data indicated new cone of depression has been formed. After detail investigation and analysis, it was thought that the appearance of the new subsidence center is the direct consequence of the construction of high-rise building. In this study, based on acquired monitoring data of subsidence, a special software package of Adina computer programs was applied in this study and analysis of the mechanism of subsidence induced by buildings. The results indicate that this method is useful to manage the land subsidence problem to high-rise building group.

One of the issues from land subsidence consequences is tilting on building. At the places where differential subsidence is existed we might literally see the building tilted. Jakarta is a mega city in Indonesia where significant land subsidence (e.g. 1-26 centimeter per year) is happening today. Issue of tilting on buildings due to land subsidence in Jakarta has been raisin. There is one high-rise building namely Menara Saidah which is judging to be tilting. As consequences the building has been abandoned. The building in the office of House of Representative is also being rumored to be tilting. Judging and rumored are not scientific, we need real measurements. There are more than two hundreds of high-rise buildings established in Jakarta city. We use the Terrestrial Laser Scanner survey to investigate the issue of high-rise building. This technology has capability to create 3D object with milimeter accuracy. Tilting on the building can be seen simply by their verticality. We have chosen several high-rise buildings to accurately measure, especially where large subsidence is there. This paper is a highlight on the investigation. As the conclusion we found the verticality of investigated buildings are still within the tolerance.
