Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tunnel engineering technology, and in particular to a method for calculating the overburden pressure on the top of a large-section rectangular tunnel. Background Art

[0002] The calculation of the overburden pressure on the tunnel is crucial to determining the reasonable burial depth of the tunnel. A greater burial depth of the tunnel will significantly increase the factory cost and construction difficulty. On the contrary, a shallow burial depth can easily induce adverse working conditions such as surface collapse and tunnel floating, endangering the normal operation of personnel and production activities.

[0003] At present, the calculation of overburden pressure on tunnels is mainly carried out around circular tunnels. Some researchers have found that the measured results of top soil pressure of rectangular tunnels are significantly different from those of circular tunnels. Since the soil arch effect in the middle part of rectangular tunnels is significantly weakened, the overburden pressure is significantly increased compared with the circular tunnel of the same size. With the large-scale application of rectangular tunnels in underground engineering, it is extremely important to find an effective overburden pressure calculation method to improve the safety and rationality of rectangular tunnel design.
