Effect of the excavation clearance of an under-crossing shield tunnel on existing shield tunnels
Abstract The excavation by earth pressure balance (EPB) shield could cause stress fields varied, which is harmful to adjacent existing structures. Thus the effect of excavation clearance of the EPB shield on the settlement of existing structures should be taken into account.

Study on the Influence of an Under-Crossing Parallel Double-Line Shield Tunnel on the Existing Tunnel Structure [PDF]
Extra care should be taken when new tunnels pass through an existing tunnel. If it is not handled properly, this will affect the operation safety of the existing line, and bring security risks to the train’s operation.
