Abstract The geological conditions encountered during construction of the Xiamen metro are extremely complicated and the shield construction has been confronted with enormous risks. Taking the Xiamen Metro Line 1 as an example, the potential risks were analyzed in terms of geological surveys, shield selection, shield driving in special geological conditions and shield construction management, etc. Relevant countermeasures based on practical experience are discussed, which offers a reference for shield construction in similar strata.
