[0025] The feasibility of the unified evaluation method for disturbance degree taking into account soil stress and structural changes provided by the present invention is verified by using a specific example below.

[0026] (1) Centrifugal model test of foundation pit excavation in dry sand stratum The test was conducted on a ZJU-400 geotechnical centrifuge of a university. The effective rotation radius of the centrifuge was 4.5 m, and the centrifugal acceleration was maintained at 60g during the test. The internal dimensions of the rigid model box used in the test were 1000 mm×400 mm×1000mm (length×width×height). The prototype dimensions of the foundation pit depth and width were 24 m and 15 m, respectively. The soil used in the test was Fujian standard sand with a relative density of 75%. The test used a micro-soil pressure sensor to measure the soil pressure with a measurement accuracy of 1 kPa, and installed multiple pairs of bending elements to measure the shear wave velocity. The corresponding shear modulus can be obtained from the measured shear wave velocity.

[0027] Vertical and horizontal earth pressure sensors are buried at 1.2m, 6m and 11m below the bottom of the foundation pit to monitor the changes in earth pressure during the test. A one-dimensional consolidation test is performed on the soil before the test to obtain its e - p Curve and e -log p Curve, its structural parameter can be obtained as 0.067; Fujian standard sand reference loading and unloading modulus The measured value is 103MPa, from which the loading and unloading modulus at each stress level can be obtained; the volume strain and shear strain can be calculated by the calculation formula; according to the back analysis results, the empirical coefficient of Fujian standard sand Take 34, substitute the required parameters into the soil disturbance degree calculation formula proposed by this method, and the corresponding disturbance degree can be obtained. The results obtained by this method are compared with the measured disturbance degree based on the shear modulus and the disturbance degree calculated by considering only the stress level change, as shown in Figure 3 As shown, it can be seen that the method provided by the present invention has a good fitting effect with the measured disturbance degree, and overcomes the limitation of underestimating soil disturbance by only considering the stress level.

[0028] (2) Field test case of shield tunneling in soft clay strata Combination Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the shield tunnel of a subway is assembled with prefabricated reinforced concrete segments. The outer diameter of the tunnel lining is 6.2m and the thickness is 0.35m. At the monitoring section, the top of the tunnel is buried at a depth of 5.5m. The strata at the construction site are mainly divided into four soil layers. The shallow layer is a fill with a thickness of 1.9m, 1.9-10m is silty clay, 10-18.5m is silty clay, and the lower part is a silty clay layer. The tunnel is mainly located in the silty clay layer and the silty clay layer. Before and after excavation, a static penetration test (CPT) was carried out on the soil of the center line of the tunnel. According to the cone tip resistance results, the measured strength attenuation rate of the soil at a depth of 13m and 15.1m from the surface can be obtained. The soil here is a silty clay layer.

[0029] The average effective stress of the soil after tunneling was obtained by numerical simulation of the shield tunneling process, and the one-dimensional consolidation test of the silty clay before the test was carried out. e - p Curve and e -log p Curve, its structural parameter can be obtained as 0.304; silty clay reference loading and unloading modulus The measured value is 21.1 MPa, from which the loading and unloading modulus at each stress level can be obtained; the volume strain and shear strain can be calculated by the calculation formula; according to the back analysis results, the empirical coefficient of silty clay is Take 31, substitute the required parameters into the soil disturbance degree calculation formula, and the disturbance degree at a depth of 13m and 15.1m from the surface can be calculated. The results obtained by this method are compared with the measured disturbance degree based on undrained shear strength calculation and the disturbance degree calculated by considering only the stress level change. Figure 4 As shown, it can be seen that the method provided by the present invention has a good fitting effect with the measured disturbance degree, and the maximum relative error is 3.5%.

[0030] (3) Case study of bag grouting in silt-sand strata The soil used in the test is a remolded sample of silt mixed with sand. The remolded sample is obtained from the soil sample obtained from the site through constant temperature drying, soil fragmentation, block grinding, vacuum stirring, and consolidation. The porosity ratio e 0=0.8, natural moisture contentw =28.7%. The built grouting indoor experimental system can restore the in-situ stratum stress, simulate the actual boundary conditions, and monitor the physical and mechanical properties of the soil such as stress, deformation and stiffness in real time. Figure 5 As shown in the figure (the figure shows the right half of the model test), the model barrel is 600 mm high and 600 mm in inner diameter (radius is 300 mm). Grouting holes are evenly opened at the front end of the grouting pipe. A rubber bag is installed on the outer sleeve of the pipe. The bag is fixed to the groove of the outer wall by wire, which can realize the time-sharing and segmented expansion of the upper and lower areas. The length of the upper and lower grouting areas is 100 mm. The buried position of the grouting pipe is as follows: Figure 5 As shown in the figure (the top of the grouting area is 100mm away from the pressure plate, and the bottom of the grouting area is 300mm away from the bottom of the model barrel), the servo loading device at the top of the model barrel applies pressure to the pressure plate P v The pore pressure penetration test (CPTU) was carried out before and after the bag grouting to obtain the cone tip resistance and excess pore water pressure of the soil, thereby determining the undrained shear strength of the soil.

[0031] The average effective stress of the soil after tunnel excavation is obtained by the buried earth pressure sensor, and the one-dimensional consolidation test is carried out on the soil before the test to obtain its e - p Curve and e -log p Curve, its structural parameter can be obtained as 0.213; the compression modulus of silt-sand remolded soil The measured value is 4.75 MPa; the volume strain and shear strain can be calculated by the calculation formula; according to the back analysis results, the empirical coefficient of silt inclusion is Take 31, substitute the required parameters into the soil disturbance degree calculation formula, and obtain the Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the radial distance between point A and the expansion point is 240 mm) and the disturbance degree is -60.6%. The measured disturbance degree calculated based on the undrained shear strength is -53.0%. It can be seen that the method provided by the present invention has a good fitting effect with the measured disturbance degree, and the relative error is 14.3%.

[0032] It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." does not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementation modes, which are merely illustrative rather than restrictive. Under the guidance of the present invention, ordinary technicians in this field can also make many forms without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention and the claims, all of which are within the protection of the present invention.
