Abstract: For the sake of predicting the ground settlement due to dynamic shield tunneling exactly, an independently developed test device was used to simulate the dynamic construction of shield tunnel under different ground loss rates. The results show that with different ground loss rate, shield excavation face passing the monitoring cross section will cause sand ground settlement increase rapidly,no matter what the ground loss rate may be, and its growth will increase with the increasing of ground loss rate, and that when shield excavation face passes the monitoring cross section by about two times of tunnel diameter, sand ground settlement will be stabilized with advancing of shield tunneling, and the stable sand ground settlement groove width decreases with the increasing of ground loss rate.

Key words: shield tunnel, laboratory model test, sand ground, ground loss rate, settlement curve, settlement groove width
