Resumen

The section of Jialingjiang Road Station to Xiangjiang Road Station along Qingdao Metro Line 13 is located in Qingdao, China. All of them show obvious characteristics, being soft on the top and hard on the bottom, and the interval tunnel is faced with the problem of existing adjacent buildings. In order to ensure the smooth progress of construction, as well as minimize the damage to the buildings, a new mechanical excavation combined with a blasting construction scheme for the adjacent buildings is proposed. In this scheme, the step method is used for excavation. The upper step is in the weak stratum, and the mechanical method is therefore used for excavation; the lower step is in the hard stratum, and the drilling-and-blasting method is thus used for excavation. Using FLAC3D 5.0 finite difference software and the method based on blasting an equivalent load, the vibration velocity at adjacent buildings caused by the combined mechanical excavation and blasting scheme, as well as the traditional full-section blasting scheme, is compared and analyzed. Further, the construction parameters of the combined mechanical excavation and blasting scheme are compared and selected based on building settlement, the plastic zone of surrounding rocks, building vibration velocity and other factors. The results show that under the mechanical excavation blasting scheme, the peak particle velocity of each monitoring point decreases significantly compared with that under the full-section blasting scheme, with a maximum reduction of 61.1%, which is within the allowable range of the project, demonstrating the rationality of the new scheme. Finally, the mechanical excavation advance in the upper step is determined as 0.5 m. The optimized parameter construction effect is monitored and evaluated, the problems encountered in the project are successfully solved using the combined mechanical excavation and blasting scheme, and the expected construction period is shortened by 3 months, which shows the rationality of the blasting construction scheme proposed and its parameters, as well as the validity of the calculation results. The research results can be used as a reference for the construction scheme design of similar projects.
