[0052] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0053] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a tunnel support method suitable for use in expansive soft rock formations includes the following steps: S1, construction preparation;

[0054] S2, installing the advance small conduit 1, which is arranged at an angle in a radial shape on the top of the tunnel;

[0055] S3: Grouting is performed by filling the small lead pipe in advance. Grouting is performed into the surrounding rock of the roadway through the inner hole of the small lead pipe and the grouting holes on the side wall. The slurry penetrates into the surrounding rock.

[0056] S4, when the slurry age is reached, the tunnel is excavated; the specific judgment of whether the grouting standard is met is: (1) the grouting volume per meter exceeds 10-15m 3 (2) When the grouting pressure of each grouting hole reaches the designed final pressure value, and the injection volume is less than 10-20L / min and remains stable for more than 10 minutes, grouting can be stopped;

[0057] like Figure 2-3As shown in the figure, through the above S1-S4 small-duct advance curtain grouting operation, advance support is formed in the tunnel, providing improved surrounding rock conditions for tunnel excavation;

[0058] S5. Shotcrete sealing of surrounding rock: Shotcrete sealing is carried out promptly after tunnel excavation to form a protective layer on the surrounding rock surface. Specifically, the shotcrete strength grade is C20, the mix ratio is 1:2:2, 3% to 5% accelerator is added, and the shotcrete thickness is set to 60 to 80 mm.

[0059] S6, Steel support 2 off-wall support construction, such as Figure 3 As shown, the steel support 2 is supported according to the set distance and forms a U-shaped frame; there is a space reserved for deformation between the steel support and the tunnel side wall 3;

[0060] S7, sprayed mesh support construction, a layer of steel mesh is laid in front and behind the steel support, and sprayed to create conditions for the implementation of anchor mesh spray support. Adjacent steel supports are connected by tie rods; the sprayed concrete strength grade is C20, the mix ratio is 1:2:2, 3% to 5% of accelerating agent is added, and the spray thickness is 60 to 80 mm;

[0061] S8, anchor bolt 4 support construction, including roof anchor bolts and side anchor bolts, the roof anchor bolts are located on the curved top of the tunnel in a radial shape, and the side anchor bolts are located on the two vertical side walls at equal intervals;

The total thickness of the sprayed layer is 100-120mm;

[0063] S10, static deformation, after the full section of the spraying is completed, the tunnel is left to stand for a specified time to allow deformation. Specifically, the tunnel is left to stand for 15 days to allow the weathered surface surrounding rock to fully deform and reduce the impact of the weathered surrounding rock expansion on the long-term stability of the tunnel.

[0064] S11, top plate anchor cable 5 support construction, such as Figure 6-7 As shown, multiple anchor cables are arranged in a radial shape at the top of the tunnel to form secondary reinforcement support. Specifically, end anchor cables with a diameter of Φ18.9mm×8000mm are used, with a hole diameter of Φ32mm and a spacing of 1000mm×800mm, and a 4-3-4 arrangement. One roll of fast-speed 2350 type and three rolls of medium-speed 2350 type resin drug rolls are used for extended anchoring. The anchor cables are tensioned by about 20%, leaving sufficient space for subsequent deformation of the anchor cables. High spherical trays (300mm×300mm×15mm) and special anchors and equipment are used for tensioning, fixing and cutting, and a high-strength anchor is equipped at the tail.

[0065] S12, steel support 2 off-wall support, first expand the side and top plate of the tunnel, then carry out steel support off-wall support, use pit wood 11 to backfill between the arch and top plate of the steel support, and use I-beam support at the bottom; this off-wall support operation is a secondary support method after pressure unloading, the rock mass has completed pressure release, and the placement of pit wood is to reserve buffer space for its subsequent long-term creep.

[0066] Specifically, the steel support 2 includes a bottom support 201 and an arc-shaped top arch 202, and the connecting ends of the two are fastened together by a connector 203. The reserved deformation amount of the two side parts is 500mm (can also be adjusted according to actual needs, the adjustment range is 200-600mm), the reserved deformation amount of the tunnel roof is 200mm, and pit wood is used for support between the tunnel roof and the steel support 2; the fully enclosed steel support 2 is made of 36U steel, a fully enclosed structure, and a row spacing of 800mm. The 36U steel has better strength to ensure the safety of permanent support. Channel steel is used to connect the steel frames, and every three supports are connected into a whole to improve the overall stability of the support. The bottom of each steel support is supported by I-beams to improve the bearing capacity of the support foot. Metal mesh is laid on the inner and outer layers of the steel support. The metal mesh is welded with φ6mm steel bars. The mesh size is 2100mm×1050mm, the mesh size is 100mm×100mm, and the mesh overlap length is 100mm. The sprayed concrete strength grade is C20, the mix ratio is 1:2:2, 3% to 5% of accelerator is added, and the spray thickness is 60 to 80mm.

[0069] like Figure 8 As shown, specifically, first clear the original floor to the design elevation, then construct a 600mm thick underlayment (excluding the reserved 100mm surface layer), with the bottoms of both sides (excluding the surface layer thickness of at least 300mm) transitioning gradually to the center of the floor in an arc shape. A 300mm×300mm×5000mm steel bar tie beam can be pre-tied on the ground (longitudinal bars are HRB335 steel bars, 3 each on the top and bottom, and 2 waist bars, with a diameter of 16mm; stirrups are HPB300, with a diameter of 8mm, and stirrup spacing of 200mm, with spacing of 100mm at bends).

[0070] The bottom plate is paved with foam board to form a foam board cushion layer 8 with a thickness of 300mm. Then pit wood is used for backfilling to form a pit wood cushion layer 9 with a maximum backfill thickness of 300mm to ensure normal traffic in the tunnel. A drainage ditch 10 is provided in the middle of the pit wood cushion layer.

During installation, the tail end of the advance small conduit is exposed, and the exposed length is set to 30±5cm.

[0072] In S3, the pressure during grouting does not exceed 2MPa to ensure that the sprayed layer does not crack.

[0073] In S4, a certain grouting reinforcement distance is retained during tunnel excavation as a grouting pad for the next grouting cycle construction. The grouting reinforcement distance is set to 2 to 4 meters, preferably 3 meters. It can also be set to other sizes as needed, such as 2 meters, 2.5 meters, 3.5 meters or 4 meters.

The mesh size is 2100mm × 1050mm, the mesh size is 100mm × 100mm, and the mesh overlap length is 100mm. The mesh is sealed with spray grout. The steel frames are connected with tie rods to improve the stability of the support. Specifically, the steel section support 2 is made of 29U steel and has a fully enclosed structure with a row spacing of 750mm.

[0075] like Figure 4 As shown in S8, the specific operations of anchor support construction are:

[0076] The construction steps of roof anchor are as follows: excavate gangue and ore → knock the roof and remove dangerous rocks → lay steel mesh → install steel support beams → use anchor drill to drill the anchor hole in the middle of the roof → clean the hole → put resin roll into the hole → use the anchor head to support the resin roll and send it to the bottom of the hole → raise the anchor drill and connect the anchor drill to the anchor tail with a stirrer → rotate the anchor drill to stir the resin roll for the specified time → stop stirring and wait for the specified time → use the installer to connect the anchor drill to the anchor tail → rotate the anchor drill to tighten the nut → install other roof anchors;

[0078] Specifically, the anchor rods are high-performance threaded steel anchor rods with specifications of Φ20mm × 2400mm and a spacing of 750mm × 750mm. The rod body is made of left-handed unreinforced threaded steel bar, the anchor hole diameter is Φ32mm, and two slow-speed 2335 resin coils are used for extended anchoring. The anchor length is no less than 1000mm, the anchoring force is no less than 100kN, and the preload force is no less than 40kN.
