Research on BIM-Based Visualization, Simulation, and Early Warning System for Shield Tunnel Construction

This study aims to facilitate a comparison between construction monitoring data and simulation results, focusing on the dynamic adjustment of safety monitoring parameters in shield construction. First, a finite element simulation was performed to define a reasonable range for shield parameters based on settlement control values, thereby determining the theoretical settlement value. An early warning system was then developed integrating two key factors: theoretical and control settlement values. Finally, Dynamo was used to merge the digital and analog data, enhancing the visual representation of the monitoring information. The findings show that combining simulations with an early warning system effectively addresses the dynamic control challenges of shield construction parameters. Furthermore, integrating digital and analog monitoring significantly improves the efficiency of real-time visualization in monitoring data. This research provides a novel and effective methodology for enhancing shield tunnel construction safety, precision, and efficiency, offering critical insights for large-scale infrastructure projects and contributing to more reliable monitoring systems in complex construction environments.
