Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tunnel engineering, in particular to a treatment structure for a large flat karst cave at the bottom of a tunnel. Background Art

[0002] my country has a wide distribution of limestone formations and a very common karst phenomenon, such as caves and sinkholes, among which caves are the most common karst form. Tunnel construction is a project that is highly dependent on geological conditions. When it passes through a karst area, caves of various sizes and shapes, as well as their locations, filling conditions, and filling properties, will have a significant impact on tunnel construction. The hazards of caves to tunnel engineering are mainly manifested in the following aspects: 1) The existence of caves makes the building all or partly suspended in the air, which will greatly reduce the reliability of tunnel use. 2) Karst water, especially when CO3 2- When the content of soluble substances increases, the flow of water will cause great erosion to the tunnel structure, affecting the service life of the tunnel. 3) Cave deposits are soft and easy to collapse and sink, changing the stress distribution pattern around the cave and affecting the stability of the tunnel. 4) The loss of groundwater in the tunnel causes the karst collapse of the top of the tunnel, resulting in the destruction of environmental geology, which is also the reason for the instability of the tunnel structure.

[0003] Since the size, shape, location, filling material and groundwater of karst caves are ever-changing, the treatment methods for karst caves are also constantly changing due to adaptation. Taking reasonable treatment measures for different karst caves has become a key factor in karst cave management. At present, for karst caves that have stopped developing, have a small span and are waterless, they can be backfilled and closed with concrete, mortar-laid stone or dry-laid stone according to their intersection with the tunnel and their filling conditions, and whether the side wall foundation needs to be deepened can be determined based on the geological conditions.

[0004] When a narrow and deep cave is encountered on one side of the tunnel, the side wall foundation on that side can be deepened to pass through. When a large cave with flowing water is encountered at the bottom of the tunnel, a masonry support wall can be built below the bottom of the tunnel to support the tunnel structure, and a culvert can be installed inside the support wall to drain the cave water. When a large and deep cave is encountered at the side wall of the tunnel, and it is not appropriate to deepen the side wall foundation, an arch can be built at the side wall or below the tunnel bottom to cross it. When a deep and narrow cave is encountered in the middle and bottom of the tunnel, the foundations of both side walls can be strengthened, and abutments and beams can be set up to pass through it according to the situation.

[0005] There is currently no economically reasonable and technically reliable means to treat large flat caves with small depth and large area at the bottom of the tunnel. If conventional cave slag or mortar-laid stone backfilling scheme is adopted, for large flat caves with small depth but large span and water-containing fillings in the cavity, it is necessary to clean up the water-containing fillings before backfilling. In addition, the amount of filling materials is huge, the drainage channel is easily blocked, the construction period is long, and the post-construction settlement is large, which is difficult to meet the structural and operational safety requirements.

[0006] In summary, there is an urgent need for a treatment structure for large flat caves at the bottom of tunnels to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content
