Application Study of the Calculation Method for Loads of Multi-Arch and Extra Large Cross Section Tunnels in Double-Side Drifts Construction Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

The calculation method for load of multi-arch and extra large cross section tunnels (MELCST) is a new method accounting for the influences caused by the multi-step construction procedure and temporary support on tunnels. The paper analyses the application of the method in the double-side drift construction method, and gives the distribution mode and the value of loose loads in various construction sequence, example analysis is also given through Luohanshan tunnel.
