[0002] In the Yangtze River Delta alluvial plain area, the geological condition is mainly soft soil layer, which has the risk of foundation settlement; at the same time, the subway vibration of urban rail transit and potential earthquake activity also put forward higher requirements on the seismic performance of building structure. The existing connection structure of subway station and sunken plaza has the following problems in anti-seismic and anti-settlement: (1) Geological settlement problem: soft soil layer is easy to cause uneven settlement due to long-term load or underground water change, which affects the stability of the connection of subway and plaza structure.
[0003] (2) Insufficient anti-seismic: the traditional structure design is difficult to cope with the double dynamic load of subway vibration and earthquake, which leads to stress concentration or structure cracking at the joint.
[0004] (3) Lack of collaboration: the structure of subway and plaza does not form an overall anti-seismic and anti-settlement system, which cannot realize the dynamic balance and compensation of load.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an anti-seismic and anti-settlement collaborative structure system for soft soil conditions to ensure the safety and long-term stability of the connection area of subway station and sunken plaza. SUMMARY
