Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tunnel construction, and in particular to a method for quickly top-lifting a soft rock tunnel. Background Art
[0002] In tunnel construction, it is often necessary to expand the tunnel section due to different construction stages or design changes, that is, to carry out top-lifting operations. Soft rock tunnels face many challenges in top-lifting construction due to their low rock strength, developed joints and fissures, and poor self-stabilization ability. Traditional top-lifting methods for soft rock tunnels often have problems such as low construction efficiency, high safety risks, and large disturbance to the surrounding rock. For example, some conventional methods are prone to cause surrounding rock collapse when removing the original support structure and excavating the upper rock mass, which in turn affects the construction progress and endangers the safety of construction workers. At the same time, due to the characteristics of soft rock, it is difficult to effectively coordinate the installation of the support structure after excavation with the control of surrounding rock deformation, resulting in a prolonged construction period. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a rapid top-lifting technology suitable for soft rock tunnels. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for rapid roof construction of soft rock tunnels in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. The method has the advantages of high construction efficiency, little disturbance to the surrounding rock, and good construction quality. It is suitable for tunnel construction in a variety of soft rock geological conditions, a certain cross-sectional size and a certain length range.
[0004] The present invention achieves the above-mentioned purpose through the following technical solutions:

The locking foot anchor pipe is installed before the excavation of the invert arch. The excavation advance per cycle of the invert arch is not more than the spacing of three steel frames. During the excavation process, the transition section at the intersection of the cross tunnel and the main tunnel is excavated first, and then the excavation is gradually expanded to the main tunnel to form a working surface.
[0010] (5) Initial support: After excavation is completed, initial support for the tunnel structure is carried out, including initial shotcrete, shotcrete anchor net system support, erection of tunnel structure steel frame, installation of locking anchor rods and re-shotcrete to the designed thickness;
[0011] (6) Erection of reinforced steel frame: Erection of reinforced steel frame at the intersection of the cross tunnel and the main tunnel, erection of the main tunnel steel frame, removal of temporary support, and formation of the working surface;
[0012] (7) Top-lift construction: According to the above steps, the top-lift construction of the left and right lines of the main tunnel is completed respectively, including the excavation and support of the upper and lower steps, until the top-lift construction is completed.
[0013] Preferably, the length of the excavation step by the micro-step method is controlled within 3 to 5 m, the initial support is promptly closed into a ring after tunnel excavation, and the distance between the initial support of the invert and the foremost heading face shall not be greater than 35 m.

[0033] (2) When the distance between the auxiliary tunnel excavation and the main tunnel is less than 10m and after entering the main tunnel, the principle of "pre-reinforcement first, then excavation, one frame for one support" shall be strictly followed for the weak surrounding rock of grade IV and V and the unfavorable geological sections, and no more than one frame shall be excavated in each cycle;
[0034] (3) After the strengthening support measures within 3-5m of the main tunnel are completed, the Luolong Project Department will organize the acceptance of the conditions for the top-lift construction according to the tunnel entry acceptance procedure. Only after passing the acceptance can the top-lift construction begin;
[0035] 2. Specific construction steps:
[0036] (1) When the normal excavation and support construction of the No. 5 cross tunnel reaches the transition section, the transition section is reinforced with 10 I18 steel frames, and a closed ring steel frame is added in the bottom plate;
