Analysis of Mechanical Behavior of Subway Tunnel Constructed by Cover and Cut Reverse Method

Abstract:

In the paper, not only the internal force and displacement of structure during subway tunnel construction with cover and cut reverse method, but also the displacement field and stress field of surrounding rock are analysed. From the numerical calculation it is shown that the bending moment of diaphragm wall is affected seriously by the distribution and value of the stiffness of horizontal support; the excavation phase of the soil of the second floor underground is the key phase of the construction process because the internal force of structure has large increase; the value of surface settlement, horizontal displacement of diaphragm wall, differential settlement between middle pillar and diaphragm walls all meet the requirements, so the construction is safe and the surrounding buildings are affected slightly.
