Abstract :

Subterranean infrastructure excavation necessitates stringent safety assessment methodologies due to its complex nature. This study addresses this imperative by presenting an integrated framework based on the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) technique. This methodology amalgamates multi-source information fusion and DEMATEL-driven multi-criteria decision-making techniques. The approach evaluates safety parameters within subterranean infrastructure excavation by synthesizing expert insights, on-site measured data, and predefined criteria. Through a systematic construction of judgment matrices, our approach offers a standardized means to assess observed values against established safety benchmarks.  The collaborative synthesis of expert assessments and empirical data not only informs the comprehensive relation matrix, highlighting intricate interdependencies among key factors but also fosters a structured pathway for evaluating safety. This integrated methodology, adaptable across diverse excavation scenarios, equips stakeholders with a holistic understanding of safety factors within subterranean construction. Facilitating informed decision-making, enables the optimization of safety protocols and interventions, thereby enhancing overall safety standards within such critical infrastructure projects.
