AI Technical Summary
When constructing a shield tunnel at close range beneath an operating subway tunnel in water-rich soft strata, there are problems such as easy dilution of grouting materials in high-permeability strata, settlement of existing structures caused by shield tunneling disturbance, and delayed adjustment of construction parameters. These lead to a high risk of stratum collapse, water and sand gushing, and tunnel diseases, affecting operational safety.
Ultrafine cement-water glass dual-liquid grouting and high molecular nanopolymer are used alternately, combined with the BP neural network algorithm to optimize the excavation parameters, a laser guidance system is used to control the posture, and fast-setting sulphoaluminate cement-based slurry is injected simultaneously. Fiber grating sensors are deployed to monitor tunnel deformation, and a distributed fiber optic temperature measurement system is used to feedback the formation response to dynamically adjust the construction parameters.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of subway tunnel construction, and in particular to a construction method for a shield tunnel passing closely under an operating subway tunnel in a water-rich soft stratum. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, urbanization has accelerated, and the scale of urban rail transit construction has continued to expand. As the backbone of urban transportation, subways, with their large capacity, high efficiency, and strong punctuality, have effectively alleviated urban traffic congestion. However, with the increasing development and utilization of urban underground space, the overlap of new subway lines with existing ones has become increasingly frequent. In particular, shield tunneling operations are increasingly underpassing existing subway tunnels in water-rich, soft strata. Water-rich, soft strata, such as silty soils and saturated fine sand, have complex engineering properties. These strata have high water content, low effective stress between soil particles, and are characterized by high compressibility, low strength, and low rheological properties. During shield tunneling, the tunneling of the shield machine can easily disrupt the existing stress equilibrium in the stratum, causing significant deformation. Due to the poor self-stabilization capacity of water-rich, soft strata, improper shield machine control during passage can easily cause accidents such as ground collapse and water and sand inrush. At the same time, when passing under an operating subway tunnel at close range, the ground deformation caused by shield construction will have an adverse effect on the existing tunnel structure, which may cause settlement, horizontal displacement, cracks, water leakage and other defects in the tunnel structure, seriously threatening the driving safety and structural stability of the operating subway.
[0003] At present, there are three major technical difficulties in carrying out such construction in water-rich soft strata: 1. Grouting materials in high permeability formations are easily diluted by groundwater, resulting in poor reinforcement effect; 2. Shield tunneling disturbance causes settlement of existing structures; 3. Traditional construction relies on manual experience, and parameter adjustment lags behind. Summary of the Invention

Four synchronous grouting pumps with a flow rate of 30L / min are used for grouting. The grouting holes are opened in the order of arch spandrel first and then back arch.
[0026] S5. Secondary grouting process After the segment is out of the shield tail 5 rings, inject ultrafine cement with a specific surface area of ≥800m² / kg and epoxy resin composite slurry with a 28-day strength of ≥3MPa through the reserved grouting holes with a diameter of 10mm and an annular spacing of 1.2m; The mass ratio of the composite slurry is ultrafine cement: epoxy resin: curing agent = 100:15:2.

[0031] During the construction period, deep hole grouting reinforcement was implemented simultaneously. Grouting was carried out within a 135° range at the top of the tunnel, with a reinforcement radius of 3m and an unconfined compressive strength of ≥1MPa. An automated monitoring system was also implemented, including a three-dimensional monitoring network consisting of a static level with an accuracy of 0.01mm and an inclinometer with an accuracy of 0.02mm / m.
[0032] This method for constructing a shield tunnel under an operating subway tunnel at close range in water-rich, soft strata employs alternating grouting of ultrafine cement-water glass dual-liquid slurry and high-molecular-weight nanopolymers to form a gradient permeability reinforcement layer, addressing the dilution problem of conventional single-liquid slurry in water-rich, soft strata. A BP neural network algorithm analyzes stratum resistance, cutterhead torque, and soil bin pressure in real time, dynamically adjusting thrust, propulsion speed, and cutterhead rotational speed to ensure excavation face stability. A laser guidance system and hydraulic cylinder pressure feedback are used to control the shield axis offset, minimizing disturbance to the existing tunnel. A fast-setting sulphoaluminate cement-based slurry with a bentonite-silica fume composite additive is incorporated to enhance the slurry's resistance to groundwater erosion. After the segments emerge from the shield tail, ultrafine cement-epoxy resin composite slurry is injected through pre-reserved grouting holes to fill the gaps between the simultaneous grouting injections. Fiber Bragg grating sensors and inclinometers are deployed within the operating tunnel to monitor settlement, horizontal position, and track geometric deformation in real time. A distributed fiber optic temperature measurement system and pore water pressure sensors provide dynamic feedback on stratum seepage and liquefaction risks, triggering an automatic grouting pressure compensation mechanism.
