Case Study

Shanghai Metro Line 18 — Deep Excavation Fiber Optic Monitoring

Metro Excavation Diaphragm Wall Strain + Temperature

Distributed strain and temperature sensing cables symmetrically installed inside the diaphragm wall of Changjiang South Road Station deep excavation. Enables real-time online monitoring of deep horizontal displacement and internal force distribution during metro construction. The system utilizes UW-FBG arrays with 0.5m spatial resolution, providing comprehensive structural health data throughout the excavation process.
