This study presents shield tunneling ground settlement data from Guangzhou Metro Line 9, including geological and operational factors. The dataset aids in understanding and predicting ground settlement, especially in karst areas.
Area of Science:
- Geotechnical Engineering
- Civil Engineering
- Earth Sciences
Background:
- Shield tunneling operations can induce significant ground settlements.
- Accurate prediction of these settlements is crucial for urban infrastructure safety.
- Karst geological conditions present unique challenges in tunneling projects.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present a comprehensive dataset of shield tunneling-induced ground settlements.
- To include geological and shield operation parameters influencing ground settlement.
- To incorporate data on karst features and their treatment schemes.
Main Methods:
- Field monitoring of ground settlements during shield tunneling.
- Tabulation of 17 key variables: geological conditions and shield operation parameters (time series).
- Inclusion of specific karst parameters: height, distance to tunnel invert, and treatment methods.
Main Results:
- A detailed dataset of ground settlements and influencing factors is provided.
- The dataset captures the dynamic nature of shield operation parameters.
- Specific data on karst interactions with tunneling is documented.
Conclusions:
- The dataset enriches existing knowledge on shield tunneling impacts.
