The results are concluded as follows: (1) Located in the Quaternary change belt of ancient stream channels, the study area is of weak compressive strength and large collapsibility with loose materials. The ancient stream channel and flood plain are prone to dislocated ruptures due to the effects of the saturated dead weight of sand layer, the infiltration of groundwater, and the difference of pore water pressure. (2) The external factor, and also, the driving force, of ground subsidence in the study area is the decline of shallow groundwater level; sedimentary difference is the internal factor which provides the material basis for uneven settlement; secondary factors include deep groundwater changes, geological tectonic activity, and artificial backfilling ponds, pools and etc. The research findings would offer theoretical basis for the study and prevention of ground subsidence in the Hebei plain. %U http://ckyyb.crsri.cn/EN/10.11988/ckyyb.20170879
