Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tunnel engineering construction, and in particular to a method for judging the stability of underground butt joint of a large-diameter shield. Background Art

[0002] In modern underground space development and tunnel construction, tunnel diameters are getting larger and larger, and excavation distances are getting longer and longer. Large-diameter shield underground docking technology is becoming more and more widely used, such as the Shiziyang Tunnel and the Yongzhou Jintang Submarine Railway Tunnel in China. Large-diameter shields have become the main construction method due to their advantages such as high efficiency and safety. However, as a key link in shield construction, shield underground docking faces many technical challenges.

[0003] During the underground docking process of shield tunneling, the stability of the soil in the docking area is crucial. Once the soil is unstable, it may lead to serious consequences such as ground collapse, tunnel deformation and even shield machine damage. Existing technologies often have limitations when judging the stability of underground docking of large-diameter shield tunneling. Some traditional methods do not fully consider complex geological conditions, such as the differences in mechanical properties of different soil layers and the influence of groundwater.

[0004] The current large-diameter shield docking stability assessment has significant limitations: traditional theories are mostly based on the assumption of waterless conditions, ignoring the reconstruction effect of seepage force in high water pressure strata on the soil stress field; the existing calculation of underwater shield support pressure relies on numerical simulation and lacks a universal analytical model. Especially in submarine tunnel projects, the seepage effect caused by head difference will significantly reduce the stability of the excavation face, and the existing methods are difficult to quantify such dynamic effects, which can easily lead to deviations in support pressure design and increase construction risks.
