This paper presents the methods which estimate the influence of ground subsidence and the stability of buildings by tunnel excavation in urban area. First, we study the behaviour of ground subsidence using neural network and numerical method. And we analyze the characteristic of both methods. Using the both methods, we evaluate the stability of buildings by subway tunnel excavation and we compare the results of the neural network and numerical analysis.

Field instrumentation and numerical analysis by the finite difference method were applied to estimate the relaxed zone in a subway tunnel of shallow depth in soft rock, excavated by NATM. The convergence and ground displacement can be used to estimate the deformation behavior and the relaxed zone. Parameters for the several models previously suggested were measured using regression analysis techniques adopting a function of time and the face advance. The estimated relaxed zone by the MPBX and FDM analysis were 1.5~3.0 m and 1.5~2.0 m, respectively. It was concluded that the visco-elastic model and the time-dependent elasto-plastic model correlate very well ($r^2$>0.9) with results of the numerical analyses.

This thesis is results of experimental works on the behavior of the cut-and-cover tunnel. Centrifuge model tests were performed to simulate the behavior of the cut-and-cover tunnels having cross sections of national road and subway tunnels. Model experiments were carried out with changing the cut slope and the slope of filling ground surface. Displacements of tunnel lining resulted from artificially accelerated gravitational force up to 40g of covered material used in model tests, were measured during centrifuge model tests. In model tests, Jumunjin Standard Sand with the relative density of 80 % and the zinc plates were used for the covered material and the flexible tunnel lining, respectively. Basic soil property tests were performed to obtain it's the property of Jumumjin Standard Sand. Shear strength parameters of Jumunjin Standard Sand were obtained by performing the triaxial compression tests. Direct shear tests were also carried out to find the mechanical properties of the interface between the lining and the covered material. Compared results model tests estimation with respect to displacements of the lining.

An inverse calculation method to obtain sectional forces, axial force and flexural moment of a tunnel concrete lining was developed by utilizing convergence measurements acquired at the maintenance stage. To monitor the behavior of the lining, DOCS system was applied to a subway tunnel section. The method was proved to be effective, yielding the same results as measured forces of buried instruments. Many effects such as vibration of sensors, vibration due to test train operation, the variation of temperature and high voltage were checked and a new management scheme for tunnel maintenance was proposed.

In the NATM tunnel construction method for urban subway and underpass construction, various causes of disaster exist. In this study, in order to analyze the importance of disaster influencing factors during NATM tunnel excavation, the possible risk factors were analyzed through prior research such as drilling, charging and blasting, It was divided into the work items of wrinkle treatment, pumice cleanup, and support materials. Next, the final 21 detailed measurement indicators were selected through the FGI survey of related experts, and AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) analysis were conducted. As a result, it was found that the workers involved in the tunnel construction were the most influential disaster influencing factor.

In this study, the blast-induced vibration effects on the structural stability of the adjacent tunnel were estimated with respect to the allowable peak particle velocity (PPV). The blasting distance from the tunnel satisfying the allowable PPV was estimated based on the analytical solutions, United States Bureau of Mines (USBM) suggestions, and the equations used in the subway in Seoul. The allowable blasting distance was estimated by using finite difference analysis (FDA) and the behavior of the concrete lining and rock bolts was examined and the stability of those was estimated during the blast. Research results show that the blast-induced vibration effects on the structural stability are negligible for the concrete lining but relatively large for the rock bolts.

In ordinary back analysis it if hardly possible to obtain the mechanical properties of tunnel lining by using commonly measured displacements of tunnel lining, because only a few displacements could be measured at the site. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new method which can evaluate the state of stresses of tunnel by using measured data. In this study, in order to assess tunnel lining stability by estimating its stresses with a few measured displacements, a formulation of back analysis method was proposed. The accuracy of results were investigated through the parametric study for several types of measurement model of two dimensional elastic lining. This new back analysis method to assess tunnel lining stresses and strains with a few numbers of measured displacements showed high accuracy and good applicability when compared to the results of numerical experiments by FEM. The method has been tested on subway tunnel and its applicability has been confirmed by comparing field and analytical data. It is verified that the stress on the tunnel lining can be obtained by only more than 3 point of input displacements without any condition of external loads.

This paper is a follow-up paper to the publication, "Development of Tunnel-Environment Monitoring System and Its Installation I - Monitoring System and Measurement in Subway Tunnel" [1]. An environment monitoring system was installed in the 20.3-km-long Gumjung tunnel, which has the general structure of a high-speed double-track railway tunnel. Data were collected for approximately one year. Monthly and daily data were obtained and analyzed for the temperature and relative humidity in summer and winter months. This paper discusses the environmental characteristics at different positions in the tunnel. The results are expected to be widely used in studies on tunnel ventilation and the improvement of air quality and thermal environments.

Recently, for the purpose of choosing reasonable and economical construction, the decision making analyses, such as VE (Value Engineering) and LCC (Life Cycle Cost), are generally performed. But, these methods have some limitations for the application to subway tunnel construction method. So, the AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) analysis is applied to determine relative importance for obtaining objectivity in quantitative analysis. And, the LCSC (Life Cycle Social Cost) method is developed to account for the social loss and risk by tunnel construction. From the case of the subway ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ lot, those methods are very useful to decision making analysis. And, in that case, both quantitative and quantitative analysis appraisement, the drilling and blasting method is evaluated useful alternative proposal in comparing with the cut and cover method.

This study analyzed a monitoring data, based on the initial limit values of monitoring in subway, of earth pressure and pore water pressure. The data is obtained from 8 sections of the Seoul metropolitan subway line No 6, 7 and 9 in about 5 years. Also, a research is performed to set up the limit values of management monitoring, which will be applied to management monitoring in tunnel, through comparing the limit values of overseas management monitoring data and that of domestic management monitoring data. And the result obtained from comparison show that the safety phase is 60% of allowable pressure, the attention phase is 80% of allowable pressure and the precision analysis phase is 100% of allowable pressure. Also, we presented a method of management monitoring by the absolute value which can be easily applied easily in practical affairs.
