Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tunnel safety, and in particular to a tunnel segment joint structure suitable for an active fault zone and an installation method. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, my country's tunnel construction technology has developed rapidly. Due to the vast territory of my country, it is difficult to avoid crossing fault fracture zones in route selection, which causes the tunnel lining to be subjected to various stress conditions including tension, shear, torsion, and bending. At present, most tunnel linings are rigid structures. After the displacement of the surrounding rock formations, great internal forces will be generated, affecting their durability and safety. Therefore, the optimization of the lining structure of tunnels crossing fault fracture zones has become an inevitable problem.
[0003] In the paper "Comparison of Segment Joint Structural Schemes for Long and Deep Segmental Immersed Tube Tunnels", six different joint structural schemes were proposed for segment joints of immersed tube tunnels, and the advantages and disadvantages of each scheme were described. However, all the proposed joint schemes are rigid joints, which are difficult to apply to active fault zones where large rock displacements may occur.
[0004] Patent No. CN110159306A designs a secondary lining flexible joint device and construction method for crossing active faults in response to the working conditions of tunnels crossing active faults. The secondary lining segments connected by high-strength springs in this invention can produce relative three-dimensional displacement, so they can play a role in tunnels under complex stress conditions such as shear, torsion, longitudinal tension and compression, and can adapt to fault displacement in various directions. However, this patent does not take into account joint waterproofing measures, which is limited in actual engineering use.
[0005] Although the above papers or patents have conducted corresponding research on the joints of tunnel segments, each of them has its own scope of application and it is difficult to directly apply them to fault geological conditions with high pressure water. Therefore, for this working condition, it is necessary to design a tunnel segment joint structure and its construction process that can be applied to active fault zones and can withstand high water pressure.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention provides a tunnel segment joint structure suitable for active fault zones, wherein the structure includes a plurality of bow-shaped steel end templates 4 symmetrically distributed in pairs between the front and rear two secondary lining 2 segments in the tunnel; the upper horizontal wing plates of the front and rear two bow-shaped steel end templates 4 are fixedly connected by a waterproof device; the waist grooves are connected by a high-strength spring 7; the lower horizontal wing plates are fixedly connected by a W-shaped water stop 8; the front and rear two bow-shaped steel end templates 4, the bottom casting template, the top initial support 1, and the front and rear two secondary lining 2 stages are enclosed to form a post-casting strip 3, and the bottom casting template is provided with a casting hole. This scheme is suitable for active fault zones, has a fast construction speed, and can be applied to tunnels of various cross-sectional shapes. It only needs to change the shape of the end template to assemble it into a closed section, and it can be applied to the construction of joints of any cross-sectional shape. It can withstand complex stress conditions such as longitudinal tension, compression, shearing, and torsion, and adapt to various fault dislocation conditions in different directions. Even if a large deformation occurs, the inner W-shaped water stop 8 can adapt to the deformation, has good waterproof ability, and can be replaced.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, this solution can be applied to tunnels of various cross-sectional shapes. It only needs to change the shape of the end template to assemble it into a closed cross-section, and it can be applied to the construction of joints of any cross-sectional shape. Specifically, the sides of the first bow-shaped steel end template 12, the second bow-shaped steel end template 13 and the third bow-shaped steel end template 14 located on the same side of the secondary lining 2 are assembled into a closed end face in sequence, and finally form a closed ring, which can be applied to the construction of joints of any cross-sectional shape, and is convenient for the pouring construction of the post-casting strip 3.

Anchor bars are welded on the pouring side of the bow-shaped steel end template 4 and welded together with the steel bars in the post-casting strip 3. Holes are drilled on the upper and lower side wing plates of the bow-shaped steel end template 4 to facilitate the upper and lower sides to be connected and fixed with W-shaped waterstop 8 and Ω waterstop 6 by bolts. After the bow-shaped steel end templates 4 at both ends of the tunnel segment are fixed, high-strength springs 7 are welded at the middle groove of the bow-shaped steel end template 4, and the high-strength springs 7 can be arranged at intervals on the cross section according to actual working conditions. Then, the outer sides of the horizontal wing plates at the lower ends of the front and rear bow-shaped steel end templates 4 are sealed and connected by a water receiving box 10, and the inner sides are fixedly connected by a W-shaped waterstop 8. Among them, water-expanding rubber 15 is also provided at the connection between the upper and lower waterstops and the horizontal wing plates.

After the steel cage in the post-casting strip 3 is installed, install the bow-shaped steel end template 4, waterproof device, and high-strength spring 7. Then install the protective cover 9 on the upper end of the Ω-shaped water stop 6. Finally, adjust the tunnel template trolley, install the arch frame and other casting templates, pour concrete through the reserved grouting holes 5, maintain and demould, and install the water receiving box 10 after reaching the strength.
[0043] The tunnel segment joint structure in this scheme is quick and easy to construct. At the same time, the joint structure is relatively flexible and can produce three-dimensional displacement, meeting the requirements of good anti-misalignment effect and good waterproof effect.

Weld high-strength springs 7 at the concave parts of the bow-shaped steel end templates 4 on both sides of the tunnel segment, and install an inner ring waterstop, i.e., a W-shaped waterstop 8, on the lower side of the bow-shaped steel end template 4. The W-shaped waterstop is embedded in the gap between the front and rear bow-shaped steel end templates 4.
[0052] 4. Fix the tunnel formwork trolley, install the steel arch frame and bottom casting formwork, pour concrete at the section and demould and maintain.

Therefore, they can withstand complex stress conditions such as longitudinal tension, compression, shearing, and torsion, and adapt to fault displacement conditions in various directions.
[0057] 3. The tunnel segment joints of the present invention use two layers of water-stopping devices, the outer layer uses an Ω-type water-stopping strip, and the inner layer uses a W-type water-stopping strip. Even if a large deformation occurs, the inner W-type water-stopping strip can adapt to the deformation, has good waterproofing ability, and can be replaced.
[0058] 4. The present invention can be applied to tunnels with various cross-sectional shapes. It only needs to change the shape of the end templates to assemble them into a closed cross-section, and can be applied to the joint construction of any cross-sectional shape.
