Abstract
Surface subsidence is one of the key control indexes of tunnel construction. Peck formula is generally adopted to estimate the settlement of the soft ground induced by shallow tunneling work, which is suggested by Professor Peck in 1969. Verification work is necessary to be done before the formula is applied in engineering. At present, the application experience of Peck formula in Quasi-rectangular tunnel construction is relatively lack, resulting in the limited application in engineering. Based on Peck formula and modified double circular formula, the paper suggested a method to calculate the settlement of soft ground in Quasi-rectangular tunnel, which contributes to estimate the surface subsidence before the construction of shield tunnel.
