Construction of underground metro stations may faces several problems in urban design terms. Therefore, design engineers use a variety of support system to stabilize the structure and ensure workers safety. In this study we present the results of 2D numerical simulation of the western gallery of underground metro station taking into account the influence of temporary support system type on the settlements induced by shallow urban tunnelling.
