| Summary: | Fragile ancient buildings are recognized as an eloquent testimony to human civilization, and their safety should arouse more attention. According to the special case of adjacent blasting construction, the assessment model should be essentially built to assess the effect of tunnel blasting on the safety of the ancient buildings. To analyze the structural safety of ancient buildings under blasting vibration and to protect the precious ancient buildings, a risk assessment model of ancient buildings with 20 relevant assessment indexes was initiatively built in this study. To be specific, the relative factors of blasting, the factors of ancient buildings, and other factors (e.g., religion) were comprehensively considered in the model. Subsequently, the risk level and weight were calculated more systematically and quantitatively by adopting the optimized optimal comprehensive method integrating the G1 method and the entropy method. Lastly, the overall risk value was determined by applying the fuzzy gray method. Afterward, the value was adopted to assess the safety of the Asoka Temple, the only existing temple named after the Indian King Asoka in China, as an attempt to verify the feasibility of this model. Besides, the Asoka tunnel was around it. As demonstrated from the results, the age of the buildings maximally impacted the safety of ancient buildings, and the safety level of the Asoka Temple was “relatively safe.” The present study built an effective model to assess the safety of ancient buildings under adjacent subway blasting construction, which could help improve the efficiency and accuracy of assessments. |
