Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of geotechnical engineering indoor testing, and relates to a tunnel excavation support model testing device and a testing method, and in particular to a tunnel excavation support model testing device and a testing method based on the design theory of the total safety factor method. Background Art
[0002] Tunnel engineering has seen significant innovations in surrounding rock properties, surrounding rock pressure, support materials, support mechanisms, support-rock interaction, support structure calculation methods, and the management of special surrounding rock and unfavorable geological conditions, resulting in a wealth of engineering experience and design and construction theories. Commonly used support structure design methods include engineering analogy, load-structure method, stratum structure method, and characteristic curve method. For various reasons, this approach remains primarily empirical, supplemented by calculations. Quantitative design of support parameters is impossible, making it impossible to analyze and evaluate the safety and economic efficiency of tunnel support structures.
[0003] The total safety factor method for tunnel support structure design has preliminarily established a quantitative design system for tunnel support structures, which can realize the transformation of tunnel support structures from "analogous design" to "quantitative design" and has a positive effect on promoting the development of tunnel engineering design technology.
[0004] The total safety factor method treats the composite lining structure as a multi-layered structure. The safety of each layer is calculated using the load-structure method, and then the total safety factor of the overall structure is calculated. The structural design and solution process of the total safety factor method is as follows: First, the design value of the surrounding rock pressure is calculated to determine the total safety factor of the composite lining. The calculation model of the shotcrete layer, the anchor rock bearing arch calculation model, and the secondary lining calculation model are allocated and combined, and the corresponding parameters are formulated. After checking the safety factor, an overall solution is obtained. Combined with the load proportionality coefficient of the overall failure stage of the composite structure, the feasibility and economic efficiency of the solution are considered, and a relatively ideal result is finally achieved.
[0005] At present, the total safety factor method is limited to the above theoretical calculations. Experimental research is needed to revise and improve the design method, for example:
[0006] 1) The total safety factor method proposes calculation methods for the bearing capacity of the anchor rock bearing arch, shotcrete layer, and secondary lining, which urgently need to be verified by model tests;
[0007] 2) Since the safety factors of the anchor rock bearing arch, shotcrete layer, and secondary lining are calculated relatively independently in the total safety factor method, the total safety factor of the composite support is obtained by superimposing these safety factors and needs to be revised and improved through model testing.
[0008] 3) Because the three-layer structure of anchor rock bearing arch, shotcrete layer, and secondary lining bears both shared and distinct loads, the overall structural design is a complex issue. Model testing is required to further explore the bearing mechanism of the composite support structure.
[0009] Based on the above problems, it is particularly important to study the support effect and bearing capacity of anchor rock bearing arch, shotcrete, secondary lining and composite support, as well as to verify and correct the safety factor methods of various calculation models in order to improve the total safety factor design system.

[0023] 2) The tunnel model fixture is filled with similar test materials using the layered paving and compaction method to form a test model. Monitoring elements, including micro earth pressure cells, displacement gauges, and strain gauges, are then embedded at the designed elevation.

The purpose of this test is to analyze the stress characteristics of the tunnel support structure, which is more inclined to structural testing.

[0030] (3) Many studies on tunnel structures simulate actual excavation conditions or actual stress states. According to the safety factor method, the safety factor corresponds to the limit state of the structure, and it is necessary to study the ultimate bearing capacity of the support structure.
[0031] (4) This test device uses four movable steel plates as detachable baffles, which facilitates the compaction of similar materials layer by layer by manual or rammer methods; organic glass windows are reserved around the tunnel model cavity and equipped with organic glass, which can be used to observe the deformation of the soil during the test.

Among them, the model stand is used to provide a space for holding the test model and provide a reaction force for the loading system; the loading system is used to simultaneously control different loading bodies to realize the loading test of the test model; the data acquisition system is used to detect the real-time displacement and real-time compressive stress of the test model during the loading test. The tunnel excavation support model test device based on the total safety factor method can realize the support structure design and optimize the support parameters; adopt a large scale size to analyze the stress characteristics of the tunnel support structure, and tend to structural testing; this device can use larger-sized anchor rod materials, and after the model body is completed, drill holes to inject adhesives and apply anchor rod materials to maximize the role of the anchor rods; through multiple detachable steel plates, the effect of spreading the compacted material layer by layer can be achieved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0042] To demonstrate the feasibility of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the specification.

[0045] Loading plate 6 is a regular rectangular pyramid constructed from high-strength steel. The upper loading plate is a hexahedron with isosceles trapezoidal sides of equal size. Its upper and lower surfaces are smooth, with the upper surface being a smaller square and the lower surface being a larger square. The upper surface is connected to the three-way loading mechanism, while the lower surface contacts similar materials. The two loading plates share the same specifications as the upper loading plate and function to evenly distribute the jack's load across the soil surface, achieving balanced load distribution.
[0046] See also Figure 7 The first loading body used in the present invention includes a displacement sensor 16, a horizontal jack 20 and a force sensor 17; the side loading cylinder 5 is connected to the loading plate 6 through the horizontal jack 20; the displacement sensor 16 is placed on the loading plate 6; the force sensor 17 is placed between the side loading cylinder 5 and the horizontal jack 20; the force sensor 17 and the displacement sensor 16 are respectively connected to the data acquisition system. The side loading cylinder 5 is the force application system in the loading system, and the load is applied to the loading plate 6 through a number of horizontal jacks 20. The hydraulic system is equipped with a proportional valve and an accumulator for pressurization control and pressure stabilization control, so that the loading process can be stress-controlled and can be loaded under different stress conditions. The horizontal jacks 20 are loaded simultaneously through servo to ensure that the compressive stress is large enough and that relative displacement does not occur in the same cross section.
[0047] The vertical loading device includes an upper loading cylinder 1, a second loading body and a loading plate 6; the upper loading cylinder 1 is connected to the loading plate 6 through the second loading body; the upper loading cylinder 1 is set on the model stand; the second loading body passes through the tunnel model fixing device; the loading plate 6 acts on the model to be tested; the second loading body is one or more, and when there are multiple second loading bodies, the number of loading plates 6 is the same as the number of second loading bodies; the upper loading cylinder 1 is connected to the loading plate 6 through multiple second loading bodies, and the multiple second loading bodies are arranged in sequence from left to right along the horizontal direction; the loading plate 6 is a regular tetrahedron.
[0048] See also Figure 6The second loading body used in the present invention includes a displacement sensor 16, a force sensor 17, a heavy-load ball head 18 and an upper row of jacks 19; the upper loading cylinder 1 is connected to the loading plate 6 through the heavy-load ball head 18 and the upper row of jacks 19; the displacement sensor 16 is arranged on the loading plate 6; the force sensor 17 is arranged between the heavy-load ball head 18 and the upper row of jacks 19; the force sensor 17 and the displacement sensor 16 are respectively connected to the data acquisition system. The displacement sensor is mainly used to check the loading displacement of the cylinder to ensure that the cylinder stroke displacement is safe and reliable. The force sensor is mainly used to dynamically monitor the real-time load, and can accurately detect the load applied to the specimen by the specimen jack, and accurately simulate the stress state of the loading. The load sensor equipped with the hydraulic system directly monitors the pressure and feeds back to the computer system.
[0049] See also Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 The upper loading cylinder 1 and the side loading cylinders 5 on either side transfer the load from the hydraulic system to the loading plate 6 connected to the soil. To accommodate vertical and horizontal loads, a row of jacks is installed on each of the top, left, and right sides of the model box. The upper row has four jacks, while the left and right rows each have four jacks. This provides both vertical and horizontal loads.
[0050] The loading system also includes an anti-interference guide loading mechanism; the anti-interference guide loading mechanism is a rectangular steel plate; the anti-interference guide loading mechanism is arranged on both sides of the top of the model to be tested; the travel terminal of the horizontal loading device and / or the travel terminal of the vertical loading device rest on the anti-interference guide loading mechanism. The anti-interference guide loading mechanism is a safety mechanism of the loading system. During the loading process, the loads acting in the vertical and horizontal directions are usually very large and in vertical directions. In order to avoid interference between the vertical and horizontal loading plates 6, the anti-interference guide loading mechanism can effectively control the stroke of the jack. By controlling the stroke of the jack, it can be pushed inward by 150 mm by the horizontal loading plate, and can be pushed inward by 250 mm by the vertical loading plate, ensuring the rational use of the test device and ensuring that the test is completed within a safe range.
[0051] The tunnel model fixing device includes a front fixed steel plate 8, a removable steel plate 9, a removable baffle 12 and an organic glass window 13; there are multiple front fixed steel plates 8, and the multiple front fixed steel plates 8 form a columnar structure containing a hollow cavity; the model to be tested is arranged in the hollow cavity surrounded by the front fixed steel plates 8 along the axial direction of the columnar structure; the removable steel plate 9 and the removable baffle 12 are respectively arranged at the front and rear ends of the hollow cavity; a groove is provided in the front fixed steel plate 8; the data acquisition system is placed in the groove; the organic glass window 13 is embedded in the front fixed steel plate 8 and is arranged around the removable steel plate 9; the horizontal loading device passes through the columnar structure and acts on the model to be tested and applies a horizontal load to the model to be tested; the vertical loading device passes through the columnar structure and acts on the model to be tested and applies a vertical load to the model to be tested. The removable baffle 9 is fixed to the middle part of the front fixed steel plate 8 by bolts, which is to facilitate the excavation of the tunnel mold. Figure 5 , multiple bolt holes 14 are provided at both ends of the removable baffle 12, which can be fixed to the rear support of the model test box by several bolts, and equipped with several adjustment plates 15 to facilitate the installation of the baffle. The front fixed steel plate 8 is sealed by a removable cover plate 9 near the tunnel model cavity. The soil, strain bricks, prefabricated sensors and tunnel model are filled into the model box and compacted according to the test requirements. Then the removable cover plate 9 is removed, the test model is extracted from the soil, and the sensors required for the test are arranged in the tunnel hole. Then, the hydraulic cylinder is used to load the model body on both sides, implementing the process of "excavation first and then loading". The deformation state of the soil during the loading process of the specimen can be observed through the tempered glass 13 above the tunnel model cavity. Figure 4 There is a groove on the inner side of the front fixed steel plate 8, the depth of which is just enough to embed the organic glass plate into the groove, so that the displacement of the specimen can be observed without affecting the test model. The removable baffle 12 is the compacting device of the model stand. Since the similarity ratio of the model box is 12.5 and it is a large-scale test, compaction is difficult. Therefore, the removable baffle is set as a movable steel plate, and the compacted material is spread layer by layer by manual or rammer methods. After the compaction is completed and the rear cover is fixed, the vertical rib 21 is fixed to the vertical rib fixing support 7 at the upper rear of the model box by bolts, fitting with the rear cover to limit the longitudinal displacement of the soil.
[0052] The data acquisition system includes a monitoring device and a data analysis system connected to the monitoring device. The monitoring device is placed in the groove of the front fixed steel plate 8. The data analysis system is used to measure the displacement and load of the loading system and to monitor and collect strain data of the test model through the monitoring device. The monitoring device is the XTDIC system; the data analysis system is an industrial control computer. Figure 4The model box has a pre-set plexiglass observation window. The XTDIC system, combining digital image correlation (DIC) and binocular stereo vision technology, tracks speckle patterns on the surface to measure the object's three-dimensional coordinates, displacement, and strain during deformation. The data analysis system comprises an industrial control computer, multiple slave computers, and various signal sensors, forming a closed-loop control system. The master control computer is installed in a dedicated console, while the slave control computers can be installed in off-site offices via network transmission, providing full monitoring and control of the test progress.
