Abstract
Land subsidence is a common geological hazard. The long-term accumulation of land subsidence in Shanghai has caused economic loss to the city. Since the 1990s, engineering structures have become a new cause of land subsidence. The concept of the geology-environmental capacity of buildings is put forward. The main factors involved in land subsidence were determined and related to the floor area ratio. The relationship was assessed using the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system for four typical regions in Shanghai, in order to give some guidance in respect of urban planning.
