Implication

Comparative evaluation reveals reliable ground surface settlement forecasts in dense sandy gravel layers, indicating viable methods for protecting adjacent urban structures.

Key Points

Analytical technique and finite element model predictions of maximum vertical settlement agreed closely with measured ground subsidence above a shallow metro tunnel.
Numerical simulation using Plaxis 2D and analytical evaluations were compared against field monitoring data from an earth pressure balance shield tunnel boring machine.
Highlights the practical potential of analytical technique and finite element model tools for conserving nearby structures during underground infrastructure construction in dense gravel.
