3D Numerical Analysis of Soil Structure Interaction Behaviors of Pipe Jacking Construction

Abstract:

This study is analyzed by numerical analysis using finite element method program of Plaxis-3D Tunnel at Kaohsiung Science Park in Taiwan. It probes the risk of tunneling procedure adopting pipe jacking construction (PJC) with man–made excavation. The main parameters of numerical calculation in this research include advancement size, soil improvement ratio and void contraction ratio, etc. Those parameters are calculated to displacement and stress distribution and we get ground movement, settlement at crown and heave at invert of tunnel excavation to assess the security. This study finds that it is safe by excavation using PJC with man-made while the gap has to be less than 38mm. Actually, the gap is 100 ~ 150mm under PJC with man-made, and it will result in high risk. Therefore, the PJC with shield has more security than other methods through monitoring ground settlement.
