Description

Technical Field

[0002] The multi-layered water-stop steel plate composite waterproof structure for shield tunneling is an important waterproofing technology applied in underground engineering tunnels and other fields. During shield tunneling, when two shield tunnel sections are joined, a multi-layered water-stop steel plate composite waterproof structure is used to ensure the overall waterproof performance of the tunnel. This structure forms a tight waterproof barrier through the cooperation and superposition of multiple water-stop steel plates and their synergistic effect with surrounding materials. It aims to effectively prevent the leakage of groundwater, ensure the structural safety and stability of the tunnel during long-term use, and also provide a dry and good environment for the construction and subsequent operation of the tunnel.

[0003] However, the existing composite waterproof structure of multi-layer waterstop steel plates for shield tunneling still has some shortcomings. On the one hand, during the shield tunneling process, due to the difficulty in ensuring construction accuracy, misalignment or excessive gaps may occur at the joints between the multi-layer waterstop steel plates, thus affecting the overall waterproof effect and making it easy for groundwater to seep into the tunnel from these weak points. On the other hand, with the complex changes in the underground environment and the long-term pressure of groundwater, the multi-layer waterstop steel plates may experience corrosion and aging, leading to a gradual decline in their water-stopping performance and thus affecting the waterproof life of the tunnel.
