As an important part of subway transfer station construction, pit-in-pit (PIP) excavation has always been a key object of monitoring and control. In this study, taking the PIP excavation project of Hefei metro line 4 and line 7 transfer station as the background, combined with on-site monitoring and numerical simulation, the variation law of lateral wall displacement, ground surface settlement, and strut force during the PIP excavation were analyzed. The results showed that the maximum lateral deformation of the pile caused by the excavation of the external pit accounted for 80%–90% of the total deformation and the surface settlement accounted for 70% of the total settlement. The excavation of the inner pit only made the maximum lateral wall displacement of the outer pit and the surface settlement behind the wall increase slightly, the growth rate tended to zero, and the maximum lateral deformation depth was all above the excavation surface, which indicated that, for this project, the inner excavation had little effect on the outer pit retaining structure. In addition, the increased exposure time of the soil at the bottom of the pit and the presence of the corner effect will cause the further development of the structure displacement and the surface settlement. Based on strut force measurements, using the tributary area load distribution procedure, it was obtained that 0.3γHe was used as the upper limit index of strut force in the region, where γ is the weight of the soil and He is the excavation depth of the foundation pit. The research conclusions were helpful for the construction and sustainable development of the PIP project.

In order to study the Dalian Metro section 202(Cujin Road station-Chunguang Street station, which is shallowly buried and covered with plain fill)’s ground surface settlement, the monitoring measuring station was built during the construction. After 3 months’ measuring by precision level,the data shows that the maximum point is in the center line of the tunnel of the upper part. The settlement is about 25.66-31.82mm. This paper put forward the concept of the distance span ratio β, β effective value range was - 4 <β< 4,Surface subsidence is closely related with β, Severe surface subsidence stage is -2 <β< 2, Occupy whole deformation is 67.5-77.6%,settlement rate about 0.84-0.93mm/d, so should strengthen the monitoring frequency, Suggest increases site tour. Field test results and the ground surface settlement calculation model winkle are identical with each other; the monitoring results have important guiding significance and reference for Dalian subway and the similar shallow depth excavation tunnel construction.

The deformation characteristics of a raised and widened old Chinese roadway on a soft soil foundation are investigated in this study via finite element numerical simulation. The rules of ground surface settlement, slope foot lateral displacement, and ground surface settlement evolution of the roadbed under three modes (one-time construction of an eight-lane expressway, widened four-lane expressway, and raised/widened four-lane expressway) are compared. The ground surface settlement process of the eight-lane road foundation, which is formed by first widening and then raising the road, is highly complex. The ground surface settlement curve under the old road foundation increases and then decreases. The lateral displacement of the slope foot also interacts with the widening and raising of the eight-lane roadbed foundation. The range of lateral displacement is 70.05, 42.58, 124.81, 104.54 mm. Fifteen years after construction, the total settlement of the raised and widened roadbed is much larger than that of the one built directly. The total settlement values at the center of the two roadbeds are 297.05 and 234.85 mm, respectively. This manuscript provides data support for the reconstruction and expansion of roads on soft soil foundations, for choosing appropriate construction methods to build roads, and for avoiding major road damage, which is of great significance to the construction of road infrastructure in the future.

Double-O-tube shield tunneling has attracted increasing attention because it offers cost-efficiency in underground construction. Prediction of ground surface settlement and the variety of additional stresses induced by shield construction is crucial to underground construction in metropolises since excessive settlement could trigger potential damage to the surrounding environment. The additional stresses induced by the propulsion of double-O-tube shields are calculated by means of the Mindlin’s equations of elasticity. The characteristics of additional stresses are analyzed with compound Gauss-Legendre integral arithmetic, and the frontal additional thrust, the lateral friction, and the ground loss are taken into account. Subsequently, based on field measurements, the maximum settlement coefficient and width of the settlement trough coefficient of the typical Peck formula are modified. The predictive curve of the Peck formula is closer to the engineering measured data than that of the typical formula. The cut-off functions of ground surface settlement caused by double-O-tube tunnel shield construction are proposed and can predict the shape of ground surface settlement, such as single peak or double peak. The correctness of the proposed functions is verified based on an engineering project.

This paper presents the surface settlement performance induced by the foamed type of earth pressure balance shield in contract CH218 of the Hsintien Line of the Taipei Rapid Transit System. The surface settlement characteristics caused by the single tunnel and by twin tunnels with reference to two sections spaced at 87 m are studied. Field observations indicate that the surface settlement trough due to the single tunnel can be represented by the normal distribution. The distance of the inflection point to the tunnel center and maximum surface settlement value are consistent with those found in the literature. The characteristics of the surface settlement trough are related to the type of the soil, particularly where the crown of the tunnel is located in a layered soil deposit. The ground surface settlement induced by twin tunnels was found to be larger than estimated using the principle of superposition.Key words: shield tunnelling, surface settlement, field observation.
