Abstract:To address the issues such as increased investment during the project construction period, high construction risks and high operation and maintenance costs caused by the traditional “one well, one pit” drainage mode of metro ventilation shafts, the value engineering theory is used to propose an optimized integrated design scheme. Taking a Metro Line 8 Project as an example, a “1+1” dual-core model is constructed, featuring an independent fresh air shaft and a shared sump for exhaust and piston air shafts. Through the calculation of rainstorm intensity and flow rate and the analysis of environmental control conditions, the drainage capacity of the system and its safety under fire conditions are verified. The analysis on life-cycle cost shows that the number of sump pits is reduced by 72%, the initial investment is lowered by 5.847 million yuan, and the full-cycle cost is saved by 19.2%, which achieves the unity of safety, economy and environmental adaptability, providing a new theoretical foundation and practical reference for precision design of urban rail transit ancillary structures.
