Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for determining the surrounding rock pressure after backfilling a tunnel ground collapse. Background Art

[0002] When a tunnel is constructed in poor geological conditions, water and mud inrush disasters may occur, forming a cavity above the vault. If the water and mud inrush cannot be stopped in time, the mud inrush may extend to the ground surface, and then the ground surface collapses, forming a pit. Usually, a certain material is used for backfilling treatment later, and drainage ditches are built around the pit to prevent surface water from flowing into the interior. After the pit is backfilled, the surrounding rock pressure acting on the lining has changed greatly compared with that before the water and mud inrush. So far, there is no reliable theoretical method to determine the surrounding rock pressure after the pit is backfilled. Summary of the Invention

[0054] The working principle of the present invention is that after the subsidence pit is backfilled, the surrounding rock pressure acting on the lining has two parts. One part is caused by the self-weight of the previously fallen loose soil mass, and the other part is caused by the self-weight of the backfill materials. Due to the internal friction angle of the backfill materials, the self-weight of the stable part acts on the side walls, and the self-weight of the unstable part acts on the bottom of the pit and also on the fallen loose soil mass, further causing the surrounding rock pressure. Therefore, the surrounding rock pressure acting on the lining is caused by the sum of the self-weight of the loose soil mass and the self-weight of the unstable part of the backfill materials.

It is 26.4°; Since Determine the unstable angle β of the backfill material to be 47.8°; Determine the volume V of the unstable part at the collapsed pit to be 4365.8 m3; Determine the surrounding rock pressure p exerted by the unstable part of the backfill material on the lining. 1 It is 536.0 kPa; Determine the surrounding rock pressure p exerted by the loose soil at the collapsed pit on the lining. 2 It is 2301.3 kPa; Determine the total surrounding rock pressure p exerted on the lining after backfilling the collapsed pit to be 2837.2 kPa.
