Abstract:
This data presented in this article pertain to measured data obtained from earth pressure balance (EPB) shield tunelling of Guangzhou-Foshan intercity railway project. The measured data consists of geological characteristics and the main shield parameters in each lining ring during shield tunnelling. The distribution of raw data was displayed, and the geological characteristics via field record were compared to the prediction results of improved stacking method. The value of the database is consideration of the relationship between shield operational parameters and geological characteristics encountered in the shield tunnelling area, including formations with soft soil, majority of soft soil, and majority of hard rock. The raw data was standardized and processed to low dimensional data by principal component analysis, which can be better used in geological characteristics classification. The presented data are applied to identify the geological characteristics in the article titled "Prediction of geological characteristics from shield operational parameters by integrating grid search and K-fold cross validation into stacking classification algorithm".
