Using expanding excavation based on shield tunnel can be regarded as a new approach to construct a metro station, especially when traditional methods cannot be implemented. This paper focuses on the ground movement property caused by shield tunneling and expanding construction. Ground movement property and construction influence scope, which happens during the construction process, are obtained by large numbers of numerical calculations and monitoring measurements. Results show that expanding excavation is the main factor which affects ground movement, and its influence will increase as the stability of surrounding rock deteriorates. Besides, horizontal displacement and vertical displacement (uneven settlement) are the two important factors which lead to building deformation and cracks; therefore, more attention should be given to these areas where the maximum displacement may occur during the construction process. Analysis of the two parameters, length to diameter ratio and depth to diameter ratio, indicates their relationship with safety of tunnel and building. Influence degree and scope of ground settlement are obtained due to change of the two parameters. The practical importance of this analysis is that we can judge whether building and tunnel are in a dangerous zone and thereby adopt relevant pre-reinforcements to ensure their safety. Later with the comparison of numerical simulation and in-situ data, we verify the accuracy of simulation.
