“…A risk assessment study presented twenty-five recommendations intending to introduce a system of tunnel safety decisionmaking and risk assessment [53]. Finally, a one-dimensional soil-structure interaction model, which integrated an estimation tool for ground movements during tunneling, was used to assess the risks of tunneling-induced building damage [54].…”

Tunneling projects face several risks during the execution stage that affect the execution objectives (cost, time, quality, and safety). This study aimed to define the main execution activities of machinery tunnels with the associated risk factors and to develop a model for evaluating and analyzing the effects of the risk factors on the execution stage. The recognized activities of executing tunnels included the following: (A01) thrust and reception shaft installation; (A02) machine setup and break-in; (A03) machine progression and lining placing; and (A04) machine break-out and removal. Additionally, thirty-two risk factors associated with these activities were identified. Risk factor probability of occurrence and impacts on cost, time, quality, and safety were determined. Due to this risky and uncertain environment, the fuzzy logic method was applied for developing a model to analyze the effects of the risks on the tunneling process. The model was applied and verified using data collected in Egypt. Many correlations were determined among risk factors that affected tunneling execution objectives, resulting in close relationships with each other. The results emphasized many significant risk factors, such as “conflict between technical geological report and the ground nature”, and “shaft wall damage during break-out”. A03, which is related to machine progression and lining placing, was declared the riskiest activity group during tunneling execution. Further, safety was rated as the objective most affected by risks. The risk model presented in this study can be modified and applied to other cases, while the results and key risks can support the decision-makers who deal with tunneling construction.

“…The result is a wide scope of topics. Several papers discuss the interaction between tunnelling and masonry constructions, whether real historic buildings (Masini and Rampello, 2021;Miliziano et al, 2022) or idealised cases (Amorosi and Sangirardi, 2021;Burd et al 2022), framed buildings (Franza et al, 2022;Schoen et al, 2022), metallic arch bridges (Faherty et al 2022) and jointed pipelines (Klar, 2022). Fewer papers focus on the impact of deep open excavations on existing tunnels (Mu et al, 2022;Zhao et al 2022) or buildings (Comodromos, 2021).…”

“…Giardina et al [20] studied the settlement and deformation of masonry buildings due to tunnel construction through the fnite element method and proposed a semicoupled method to evaluate the damage of masonry structures caused by settlement. Burd et al [21] proposed a simplifed one-dimensional (1D) soil-foundation interaction model for assessing the risk of building damage caused by tunnel construction. Amorosi et al [22] analyzed the deformation and damage mechanism of masonry structure caused by shallow buried tunnel based on the two-dimensional fnite element model.…”

When the shield tunnel obliquely penetrates the large-span masonry building, the ground deformation caused by shield construction may cause the risk of deformation and cracking of the existing masonry structure held above. Based on a shield tunnel obliquely penetrating a large-span masonry building in Zhengzhou, a three-dimensional finite element model of building-stratum-shield tunnel interaction was established by MIDAS-GTS, and the laws of settlement, deformation, and damage of the building were studied. Results show that when the first line (left line) of the tunnel is penetrated, the settlement groove along the horizontal direction of the building presents a “ V ” shape, while after the second line (right line) is penetrated, which changes from “ V ” shape to “ W ” shape, and the maximum settlement value of the building caused by the first line can account for about 2/3 of the total settlement value. The maximum tensile strain of both the building’s south and north walls occurs at the bottom of the wall within the range of the tunnel, which develops upward and gradually weakens. Influenced by the oblique crossing angle, the maximum positions of settlement and strain for the building’s front and rear walls are offset to some extent. With the masonry building’s stiffness increasing, the uneven settlement of buildings decreases linearly, and with the tunnel oblique crossing angle increasing, the uneven settlement increases exponentially, while with the tunnel buried depth increasing, the uneven settlement shows an exponential downward trend.
