Early Stage Tunnel Lining Experimental Study of Jinhuashan Railway Tunnel Construction within Soft and Weak Rock Mass

Abstract:

Polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete can improve the common concrete flexibility and it is beneficial for interaction between concrete lining structure and rock mass. The use of fiber reinforced concrete with wet sprayed concrete technique can improve the concrete lining structure construction quality and improve the rock mass self-bearing capacity. The wet-sprayed fiber reinforced concrete is first introduced in Jinhuashan railway tunnel early stage lining structure within soft and weak rock mass. The design of Jinhuashan railway tunnel lining structure using fiber reinforced concrete is introduced and the requirement of material used is explained. To evaluate the lining effect using wet-sprayed fiber reinforced concrete, the online monitoring method is used to measure the rock mass pressure and the concrete lining layer stress for both the experimental tunnel sections and comparison tunnel section. The monitoring data result shows that the rock mass pressure in experimental section is even distribution with lower rock mass pressure and lower concrete lining layer stress. The value of rock mass pressure and tunnel lining layer stress in comparison tunnel section is a little higher than that in experimental tunnel section. The experimental tunnel section using fiber reinforced concrete has good lining effect.
