Crack Resistance Design for the Circular Hydraulic Tunnel Lining Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, an indoor large scale model test on the crack resistance of hydraulic tunnel structure which has first adopted the real water load in China was conducted in Dalian University of Technology. The model test can reveal the load carrying capacity and the deformation of the lining structure effectively. Based on the test results, models respectively for the mean crack width and the mean stress of reinforcing bars were developed and then compared with existing monitoring data provided by a hydroelectric station. The results shows that the model for predicting the crack width of lining structure has a good accuracy and thus is of great value in the engineering application.
