Numerical Investigation of Shield Cross Tunnel Minimum Cover Depth

Article Preview

Abstract:

With the development construction of subway in the city, the cross tunnel is becoming common. However, due to the geological conditions of the subway which limited the minimum depth of the shallow overburden of the tunnel is not the same. In this paper, according to the mechanical characteristics of the cross subway tunnel in several typical soil, a three-dimensional finite element mode is established. And to find out the discipline of minimum cover depth in vertical cross the tunnel by researching tunnel shield excavation the ground surface deformation characteristics.
