Typical Portal Structure for Single Track High Speed Railway Tunnel in Rugged Mountainous Area with High and Abrupt Slope

Article Preview

Abstract:

On the basis of different landform and multifarious topography in rugged mountainous area in southwest China, typical tunnel portals for single track tunnels in a new high speed railway line have been presented in the paper. The portal comprises headwall, shed tunnel, bridge abutment and its support. Portal with headwall is suitable for tunnel to resist front earth pressure on high and abrupt slope. Shed tunnel is placed in front of headwall so as to prevent rockfall; its outward part is built into a flared one. Meanwhile, the installation of bridge and its abutment are also included in the portal according to landform in the paper.
